Jördenstorf village church
The village church Jördenstorf is a late medieval village church in Jördenstorf in the Rostock district in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania . The parish belongs to the Rostock provost in the Mecklenburg parish of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Northern Germany ( Northern Church ).
Building description
The oldest part of the church is the east-facing, rectangular choir , which was probably built from field stone in the middle of the 13th century . In the west, the slightly wider and higher rectangular nave, built a little later, is connected as a brick building . The brick tower, probably built in the 15th century, with a recessed, younger half-timbered tower and tent roof forms the western end of the church. The choir is spanned by an eight-rib vault, the nave is covered by a flat wooden ceiling. The east gables of the choir and nave are divided into panels.
Furnishing
The church has a rich interior mainly from the 18th century. The organ front on the west gallery built in the first half of the 18th century was created by Paul Schmidt from Rostock in 1777. The work from 1878, however, comes from Friedrich Friese III and has 15 stops on two manuals and pedal. The pulpit with the ornate sound cover on the right choir arch dates from 1734, the confessional dates from 1715. The altarpiece was made in 1793, the upper part is made up of a crucifixion group from the 15th century, but the altarpiece is a more recent copy after Guido Reni from 1875. An on the south wall of the church there is an ornate epitaph for J. von Blücher from the 17th century. Various pews in the church and some historical tombstones placed in and around the church also date from the 17th and 18th centuries. The church bell was cast by Otto Gerhard Meyer in Rostock in 1749 . The church treasures also include various gilded chalices from the 18th century and some historic candlesticks.
