History and architecture
The Ganzkow village church is a flat-roofed hall church made of field stone from the first quarter of the 14th century. In the east it has a now plastered brick gable with strong pointed arches and a staggered group of three lancet windows , on the long sides there are slender pointed arched windows and coupled round-arched twin and triple screens (similar to the village church of Badresch ). There are stepped portals in the west and south; the western portal is walled up, in front of the southern portal there is an eighteenth-century vestibule. Above the west gable, the church has a stately half-timbered tower with an octagonal upper floor and a hood with a weather vane from 1785.
Furnishing
The main part of the furnishings is a three-storey, wood-colored altarpiece from 1626 by Johann and Michael Adler, which was transformed into a pulpit altar by installing the simple pulpit basket at the same time in 1836 . A crucifixion relief was previously arranged in the main field. It is flanked by richly carved columns and next to it shows Peter and Paul von Hermen , in the predella a relief with the Last Supper, on the upper floor reliefs of the Resurrection with two apostles and above the Ascension.
Patronage stalls with fittings as well as pastors' and parish chairs from the first half of the 17th century have also been preserved. The west gallery with its fine neo-Gothic ornament dates from the first half of the 19th century.
Instead of an organ there is a harmonium. The bell was cast in the 14th century. A fragment of a granite baptism from the Middle Ages is also preserved.
In front of the church there is a Classical tomb of those von Barner's from 1804.
