location
The federal highway 102 leads from the northwest in a double curve into the village and there in a southerly direction out again. At the eastern vertex, the village road branches off to the northeast. South-east of this intersection, the church stands on a plot with a church cemetery , which with a wall of bricks on a rough-hewn and not ply layered base of fieldstone fenced is.
history
The building was built in the early 13th century. During the baroque period the portals and windows were partially enlarged. At the end of the 2010s, the structure was in dire need of renovation.
Building description
The building was essentially made of field stones, which were carefully hewn and layered in layers. The retracted, semicircular apse is stabilized by a double-stepped buttress made of masonry on its east side. To the side of it are two small round arch-shaped openings, which should come from the construction period. This is followed by the also drafted choir . It has a pressed-segment arched window on the north and south side and a clogged priest gate on the south side .
The nave also has a rectangular floor plan. The walls of the nave are supported by triangular buttresses at the western and eastern ends. In the center are three, partly enlarged, arched windows and on the south side an arched community portal, which is also likely from the construction period.
The choir and nave have a simple gable roof from which an octagonal church tower rises above the western nave . It has small, high-rectangular sound arcades , above it a curved tower dome with an open lantern , which ends with a tower ball and weather vane.
Furnishing
The pulpit altar was created by Johann Christian Angermann in 1730 and restored in 1920. The Dehio manual describes the work as "high quality". It consists of a columnar structure with cloud glory and a blown gable . Laterally, Moses and Jesus Christ attached. A curved pulpit protrudes in the middle and rests on a console.
Other church furnishings include a wooden fifth from around 1700, an eight-sided, profiled goblet and two rows of chairs from the beginning of the 17th century, which were supplemented by a prayer room from the 18th century. A horseshoe gallery has a baroque shape and swings slightly forward to the west. On it stands an organ that Albert Kienscherf built between 1905 and 1910. It is not playable in 2016. The district cantor Peter-Michael Seifried describes it in an article in the Märkische Allgemeine as follows: "The parish must have had a lot of money back then, because the instrument was one of the most modern and the pinnacle of technology in its time."
The building has a flat roof inside.
