The village church of Groß Tessin is a listed church building in Groß Tessin , a district of Glasin in the district of Northwest Mecklenburg ( Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania ). The community belongs to the Evangelical Lutheran parish of Neukloster and Greater Ticino.

History and architecture

The parish village of Groß Tessin was mentioned in a document as early as 1233. When the Rühn monastery was granted on July 8, 1233, the village of Duzcin was part of it as a morning gift . On October 1, 1275, Greater Ticino, along with the lake and the church, became the property of the Sonnenkamp zu Neukloster monastery . Greater Ticino later transferred from the monastery association to the domain association. According to the visitation protocol of 1588, the parish became Protestant after the Reformation with Pastor Thomas Folchwich.

Dendrochronological investigations of the roof structure have shown that the elongated brick hall of the church was built in three stages between 1298 and 1345 from east to west. It is a five-bay building with a five-sided choir . The longitudinal gable roof is hipped to the west. The outer walls of the nave are structured by stepped buttresses . The narrow western windows are slightly ogival, while the eastern ones are two-part ogival windows. The portals in the neo-Gothic south porch, restored in 1878, and in the tower are profiled with quarter bars. Another church visitation took place in 1786.

The interior is spanned by ribbed vaults with keystones. You assume semicircular wall services with simple house monocapitals. A sacrament niche has been inserted in the northern pillars of the choir, both of its doors date from the 15th century.

tower

The rectangular west tower with the width of the nave consists of a basement with unframed fieldstones and an upper part walled up in brick in 1741, which was enhanced by small sound openings under the eaves.

Furnishing

  • The pulpit altar , begun in 1749, was completed in 1750 by the sculptor C. F. Beckmann, the painter Heinrich Krüger and the carpenter Marten Witt, all from Wismar, based on an inscription on the back of the altarpiece. A painting depicting the Last Supper can be seen in the basement of the architectural structure . The two-zone main floor with the pulpit is framed by free figures and columns, above the main cornice with the sound cover the Christ is visible in a steel halo as a triumphant.
  • The baptism made of limestone in the shape of a chalice is probably a work of the 14th century.
