Pantlitz village church
The Pantlitz Church is a 19th century village church in Pantlitz , a district of the municipality of Ahrenshagen-Daskow , in Western Pomerania . It has been Vorpommern's first cyclist church since 2006 .
history
The church was built from 1867 to 1868 according to plans by the Stralsund city architect Ernst von Haselberg . At the time, the patronage was held by the von Stumpfeldt-Lilienanker families from Daskow and from Mecklenburg from Pantlitz. Their coats of arms can still be seen on the patronage extension on the south side. In 1972 the church was abandoned due to its dilapidation and began to fall apart. Furnishings were destroyed by vandalism before. The church has been restored since 1990.
Building
The neo-Gothic brick church is a well-proportioned building with a polygonal choir , the nave with stepped buttresses and two southern Stems and a towering west tower with octagonal spire , which was covered with copper sheet 1926-1927. The choir and nave have Gothic lancet-shaped windows, some as pairs with a crown oculus. The east and west walls of the nave have a stepped gable. The tower has a large west window as well as windows and sound openings on several floors. Grave steles were inserted into the window openings of the porches .
In the churchyard there is an arched churchyard portal with half-length portrait of Martin Luther and Philipp Melanchthon in sgraffito . A war memorial from 1921 stands next to the church.
Furnishing
The vault has pear ribs on consoles. Pulpit , altar , gallery parapet and the sacristy enclosure made of wood date from the construction period. The baptism is made of sandstone , each with tracery shapes. The remaining furnishings were destroyed after 1972 or in Ahrenshagen, the remains of the organ by the Stralsund organ builder Friedrich Albert Mehmel , were sold. The choir windows are from the glass painting Oidtmann (Linnich), diamond carpet pattern in grisaille painting , multi-colored tracery ooculi . Most of the current seating comes from the Damgarten Evangelical Church . A remnant of the old Pantlitzer stalls are still preserved in the church. In the church there is a copy of the picture “Adoration of the Shepherds” by Gerrit van Honthorst from the Netherlands .
Peal
The church has a bronze bell that was cast by Carl Voss in Stettin in 1869 .
Surroundings
There is a cemetery around the church where tombstones of the von Stumpfeldt-Lilienanker family have been preserved. From the church tower you can see the ramparts, which were built as a hilltop castle in Slavic times and which some consider to be the site of the Battle of the Raxa . Not far from the church is the ground monument of a medieval tower hill with a surrounding moat, similar to the one in Hessenburg .
Parish
The Protestant parish of Ahrenshagen-Lüdershagen has been part of the Stralsund Propstei in the Pomeranian Evangelical Church District of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Northern Germany since 2012 . Before that she belonged to the Stralsund parish of the Pomeranian Evangelical Church .
