history

Cabinet panes on the south side

There are different statements about the construction date. The Ziethen parish office states on its website that the churches belonging to it all "approx. in the 13th century ”. In contrast, the Dehio manual speaks of the second half of the 14th century. The altar consecration took place in 1371. In the Thirty Years War the church tower was destroyed and not rebuilt. In the second half of the 17th century, craftsmen rebuilt the polygon choir . The windows that were previously pointed arches were probably provided with a flatter round arch . In 2007, the restored church , the roof and the eaves in the choir.

Building description

The church was built from field stones and bricks and then given a grayish plaster. The choir with a five-eighth end is strongly drawn in and supported with three-tiered buttresses . Its arched windows have a triple-tiered garment , which is also edged with bricks.

This is followed by the nave with two yokes to the west. The eastern wall has no openings; the gable is decorated with three staggered and coupled panels . However, these are not worked out symmetrically. At the transition to the eaves is a small pinnacle . On the southern side of the east wall, next to the choir, a small, walled-in opening can be seen that was evenly closed with bricks. The north side is kept simple and provided with four, pointed arched windows, which were designed arched at a later time and bordered with red bricks. On the south side there are several epitaphs , for example the grave slab of Heinrich Christian Dorschlag near the west portal and the grave slabs for Claus Hornun (g) and Christian von Nürnberg next to the south portal.

Further, partly heavily weathered slabs stand in front of the west portal. It is pointed arch-shaped, staggered twice and made of masonry. This is also the only opening on the west side of the building. Next to the plates are grave crosses with flowers made of iron. The corners are accentuated with reddish bricks in the form of pilaster strips , and pinnacles above in the gable. The gable roof is covered with plain tiles.

Furnishing

View into the nave to the east

The altar is simple and brick; on it a crucifix . The Fünte is made of artificial stone and dates from 1870 - a gift from Hackwitz from neighboring Wahlendow. It has neo-Gothic elements. A marble epitaph , which is also framed in an aedicule, is reminiscent of Marie von Quistorp (1903). The design comes from the diplomat Heinrich VII. Reuss zu Köstritz and is said to be a gift from four girls from a boarding school. On the west gallery there are reliefs of the four evangelists , which are framed in aedicule . The work dates from the 17th century and was probably removed from a pulpit . Four cabinet disks also date from the same period . South of the pointed triumphal arch are two other colored figures depicting John and Luke .

The inside of the structure is flat covered. The entrance portal next to the dry stone wall consists of two pillars made of brick and crowned with a cross.

The Sauer organ dates from 1964 and has eight registers , which are distributed over a manual and pedal . It was repaired in 2008 by the organ building company Mecklenburger Orgelbau.
