Diemitz village church (Mirow)
The Protestant village church Diemitz is under monument protection standing church building in Diemitz , a district of the city Mirow in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern .
Building history
Exterior
It is not known when the first church in Diemitz was built. The previous church, which was in comparatively good condition after the 30-year war in 1649, burned down completely, like large parts of the village, in a major fire in 1740.
The current church was built in 1764/65 in the classicism style. The church patronage , as in Lärz and Schwarz , was the Dobbertin monastery , which is why the three village churches are very similar. The builders, whose names can be read on the medallion of the patronage box, were the provisional Rittmeister Friedrich Ludwig Matthias von Vieregg and Captain August Friedrich von Stralendorf . Also the name of the monastery captain Johann Diedrich von der Osten .
An extensive renovation took place in the 2000s , during which the church was re- plastered , among other things .
Interior
pulpit
The pulpit altar is kept in the Rococo style and is adorned with four figures representing the evangelists . The Eye of Providence is supposed to represent the Trinity of Father, Son and Holy Spirit and the halo symbolizes the glory of God . The candlesticks are from 1665.
The ceiling paintings are very similar to the one in the Lärzer church and are probably made by the same artist. The patronage boxes are to the right and left of the altar. On the right is a medallion on which you can read who and why built the church. A staircase leads from the box to the pulpit.
The baptismal font dates from 1805 and was donated by Hansz Christoffel Lange . The offering box bears the year 1741. The Vasa Sacra were made by the goldsmith Hans Steffen Bornemann from Rostock and are silver-gilded .
Bells
There are two bells in the tower . These replaced the bells that were melted down during the First World War . The larger of the two from 1926 is defective. The smaller one is rung by hand during church services. The original bells were cast in Rostock in 1765, but the larger one was replaced in 1902 by a bell that was cast in Wismar .
organ
The organ with five registers , a manual and pedal was installed in the west gallery by Schlag & Söhne in Schweidnitz in 1897 . It is a flat prospectus with three pipe fields under round arches. In 1974 the organ builder Wolfgang Nussbücker from Plau implemented a mechanical system.
