The Protestant village church Hasenfelde is a late Gothic field stone church in Hasenfelde , a district of the Steinhöfel community in the Oder-Spree district in the state of Brandenburg .

location
The Fürstenwalder road leading from the southeast coming into the village, where it extends as Bahnhofstrasse heading east. The church stands southeast of this intersection on a slightly raised area that also serves as a church cemetery . This is enclosed with a fence and a wall made of reddish bricks .
history
So far there have only been vague hints about the building history. The Brandenburg State Office for Monument Preservation and State Archaeological Museum (BLDAM) states that the church was built in the second half of the 13th century and speaks of an expansion or renovation in the 14th century. The Dehio manual describes the church as a late Gothic building that was built using a previous building from the 13th century. What is certain is that the windows were enlarged “ baroque ” at a later date . In 1901 the parish had the building rebuilt. Among other things, the upper part of the tower was built.
Building description
The structure was mainly built from field stones . These are partly layered and carved. The rectangular choir has a straight east wall and is slightly drawn in. The lower four to five layers are carved comparatively carefully. Only the corner stones were carved over it. Originally, a lancet triple window with a raised pointed arch was probably installed on the wall . After the baroque renovation, there are still two beehive-shaped windows with borders made of reddish brick. The middle window is relatively carefully blocked with lightly hewn stones. There are two small and rectangular windows in the gable . On the north wall, the remains of two pointed arched windows that have meanwhile been added can also be seen. Instead, two large, beehive-shaped openings were used that partially cut the original windows. At the transition to the nave is a small, rectangular vestibule made of reddish brick. It can be entered from the north through a gate. Above it is a circular opening. There are also two windows on the south side. Remnants of an original opening are not visible, so these two windows were probably placed in their place. The repair work above the openings, which is considerable in some cases, also fits this. The remaining stones are comparatively well carved and largely layered in the lower half. At the transition to the simple saddle roof is a toothed frieze made of reddish brick.
The ship has a rectangular floor plan and was built from poorly hewn field stones. On the north side of the nave, it is noticeable that a few stones were hewn in the western area, but that they run completely towards the east. It is conceivable that this was due to repair work after major destruction. But it is also possible that the choir was originally built and the nave was added in the following century. In the lower area of the facade there are two small, pressed segment arched windows, above each a larger window. The south side of the nave is constructed identically.
This is followed by the mighty church tower to the west . It was supplemented by two extensions. On the north side, the craftsmen extended the length of the nave and pulled the wall in the west up to the height of the church tower. There are two coupled, small and tall rectangular windows on the north side. On the west side is a now rectangular gate, which was set in an originally segment-arched opening. On the south side, a further extension was built to the width of the nave, but it does not reach the west wall of the church tower. There is a rectangular gate on the south side and two coupled, tall rectangular windows above it. On the west side there is another coupled window, above it a high rectangular opening. The main entrance, however, is through a large portal that is enclosed in a pointed arch-shaped, four-step panel with an overlying ox-eye . Above is a circular window with a quatrefoil . In the middle floor there are three slot-shaped openings on each of the three visible sides. This is followed by the bell storey. It was built from reddish brick. On each side there is a large, ogival panel, in each of which two coupled and also ogival arcades are embedded, and above it a circular opening. In addition to the cover, there are two other, smaller but also ogival covers. There is a gable roof between the masonry and pinnacle- decorated gables with a clock tower. The comparatively unusual shape means that Hasenfelde is also known as the “place of long ears”.
Furnishing
The altarpiece was made in the first quarter of the 17th century. It shows in the predella the Supper of Jesus , in the altarpiece , the Crucifixion and the altar extract the Assumption . The wooden structure is described in the Dehio manual as "simple" - the pulpit, however, as "beautiful". It dates from the beginning of the 18th century and consists of a bulbous, polygonal pulpit . There are “high quality” carved figures depicting the evangelists . Both the pulpit and the base were redesigned in 1967.
On the gallery is an organ that Carl Ferdinand Landow created in 1857 and 1858. It was partially destroyed after 1944, after 1960 parts were dismantled and used in Heinersdorf. In 2003 a Friends of Organ Hasenfelde was founded. His goal was to restore the instrument. In 2007 the first three registers could be repaired, by 2016 the remaining eleven registers as well. The work was carried out by the Sauer company .
To the north of the church there is a stele that commemorates the fallen from the world wars. Several boulders were arranged in a circle around them in front of a tree. The names of the fallen are written on them.
