The Protestant village church Wamckow is a towerless stone church in Wamckow, a district of Kobrow in the district of Ludwigslust-Parchim in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania .

history

Wamckow was first mentioned in 1256 when Pribislav , Prince of Richenberg, gave his chaplain Jordan the parish of Wahmkowe with the Hohen Pritz branch . Villa et ecclesia Prituzen, que est filia ecclesi in Womekowe, in prefata villa Pretutsen Duos mansos ad ecclesiam, et hos cum omne iure preter sententiam capitalem, er de quolibet manso Dimidium siliginis annuatium, in stagno adiacenti preter sayam ad suosatur usus.

On June 19, 1279 Pastor Jordan from Wamckow was named as a witness Jordano, plebano in Wamekow at the inauguration of the Parchimer Neustadt Church by the Schwerin Bishop Hermann in a legal dispute . In the deed of 1256, the neighboring towns of Niendorf and Turloff as well as the desolate , ie submerged, villages of Buchholz and Stampe were mentioned before 1600 . In the following century nothing more can be learned about Wamckow. In the will of the Sternberger priest and permanent vicar Johann Walk from September 30, 1367, the church lord rectorem ecclesie Henricum from Wamekowe was also mentioned. The noble von Wamekow family is said to have named themselves after the estate and place Wamckow and have been an important and wealthy family from Sternberg since the beginning of the 14th century. In addition to Blankenberg and Pastin, the Turloff estate was owned by von Wamekow. The family died out at the end of the 15th century.

In 1434 Wamckow was in the possession of Klaus von Pressentin from Prestin . From 1478 onwards, von Plessen is said to have owned Wamckow and the church patronage until 1603. On January 17, 1603 Wamckow went from Reimar von Plessen to Brüel for twenty years as a pledge to Johann Reimar from Pressentin to Prestin.

The Wamckow pastor Joachim Rönikendorf, who was described as a pious and learned preacher and his landlord von Plessen are said to have participated in the Reformation in Mecklenburg . On June 20, 1549, they boarded the carriage and let the horses trot to the Sagsdorf Bridge near Sternberg . There they met at the bridge in the open air, prelates, knights and representatives of the cities, regional clergy and university representatives to complete Luther's work of reform.

The Thirty Years' War also left hardship, misery and destruction in Wamckow. At the beginning of the military conflict there were twelve farmers and six Kossats living there, but at the end of the war there was only one inhabitant, the sixty-year-old village mayor. In 1623 Gerd von Steding took over the Wamckow estate, which then passed to the von Dessin family in 1640, heavily indebted . The presence of foreign soldiers in the war years has also been documented in the Wamckow church book. On July 10, 1648, a Swedish corporal was married by Pastor Christoph Boje on the estate. Wamckow and also Niendorf were mightily ruined by the sad continuous warfare… . What the war had spared was destroyed by a severe storm in February 1648, on the Monday of Shrovetide Week. A great storm wind like a whirlwind or earthquake, which many Christians are not alone in fright , swept over the village and caused enormous damage. Pastor Boje further reported that such a great thunderstorm tore down our tower to the ground next to the two bells. The parishes in Wamckow and Prestin have belonged together in church since 1642.

From 1671 to 1692 Gerd Carl von Dessin from the Penzlin house was the owner of the estate in Wamckow. From 1692 on, Captain Johann Detlev von Dessin took over as heir to Wamckow, followed by his son Gerd Carl von Dessin. In 1698 there was a comparison between the widow of Pastor Jakob Dahlmann and Anna Margarete von Buchwald as the widow of Pastor Johann Christoph von Ha (h) nstein over a sum of money. As a member of the knighthood on April 18, 1755, Gerd Carl von Dessin also signed the constitutional settlement of inheritance . He was still the heir to Görslow , Langen Brütz , Leezen and Panstorff . Gerd Carl von Dessin died on January 21, 1791 as a bachelor and bequeathed the large manor in Wamckow to his sister Magdalene Ilsabe von Bülow, born von Dessin until 1794. At the age of twenty-five she was the second wife of the Dobbertiner monastery captain Jobst Hinrich von Bülow from Woserin .

On January 13, 1725, Agnes von Dessin from Wamckow was entered in the registration book of the Dobbertin Monastery for acceptance as a conventual in the aristocratic women's monastery . After 36 years of waiting, she was accepted into Dobbertin, but left eight years later through marriage. Around 1770 there were still several lawsuits between the von Plessen and von Dessin families because of their legitimate feudal sponsorship. With Gerd Carl von Dessin, the estate in Wamckow ended in 1794. From 1770 to 1791, the von Dessin family owned properties in Stieten .

After that, von Bülow came into the possession of Wamckow as pledge bearers. In June 1794, Gottlieb Friedenreich von Bülow, who was born in Dobbertin on September 25 and had previously served in the Prussian military, moved into the old manor house in Wamckow. Four years later, Wamckow became a hereditary fiefdom and remained so until 1903. From 1803 to 1805, Gottlieb Friedenreich von Bülow had the architect David Anton Kufahl build a new manor house in the classical style that was also called a castle in Wamckow. It was a 13-axis brick building with a hunched mansard roof and a recessed wide entrance with Tuscan columns. When von Bülow died on June 21, 1836, he was buried in the small funeral chapel on the north side of the Wamckow Church. The Bülow burial chapel was demolished around 1900. In 1870 Wamckow was divided by the Bülows and Neu-Wamckow was named Dessin after its ancestors.

On June 23, 1903, Ernst von Bülow-Trummer sold the Wamckow estate with its design to Rittmeister a. D. Carl Georg Alfred von Engel . In 1922, Carl Hinrich von Engel took over the Wamckow estate. The von Engel stayed in Wamckow until 1945 and fled to western Germany from the advancing Red Army . In the course of the land reform , the property was expropriated, from 1957 onwards as a local agricultural enterprise (ÖLB), Wamckow became a state-owned property (VEG) in 1959 . In 1990 the Wamckower Gut was under trust management and the manor was closed due to the risk of collapse. The Rethmann family has owned the estate since 1994 . The old manor house was demolished in 1995 and replaced by a new building, a two-storey three-wing complex with a gable roof. As a sponsor of the Wamckow stone church, he had it extensively restored inside and out between 1993 and 1996. The wooden bell tower standing separately on the west side was renewed, the cemetery with the historical grave crosses was restored and a field stone wall was added.

Building history

At the start of construction of the Wamckow Church there are no sources. The beginning is boldly dated between 1225 and 1250, but Wamckow was first mentioned in documents in 1256. In this document Jordan, Plebano in Wamkow is also listed as pastor in Wamckow. But one can infer where a pastor is there a church . But a pious squire could have made a preacher's room available to the pastor in his manor house. But there will certainly have been a previous building as a wooden church.

Historians put the construction of the stone church in the second half of the 15th century.

In 1648 a severe storm caused enormous damage in Wamckow. In Pastor Christoph Boje's notes, there is such a great thunderstorm about the church, our tower next to the two bells torn to the ground. Historians have also written that there is no tower, but that one should have been there that burned down a long time ago.

In the visitation protocol of July 26th, 1705 Pastor Johann Christoph von Hanstein writes about the Wamckow Church: The walls of the church are made of field stone and the gables are made of wood. Rafter and beams are new. On the other hand, the floor is somewhat covered with old boards. The church has no tower, but two bells hang in the churchyard on a belfry. There are six window lights everywhere in the church and the windows in good condition. The altar is made of grinding and sculpting on wood, the table is bricked. A canvas cover lies on the table. After the rectory burned down in 1747, the parish of Wamckow was connected to Prestin and Groß Niendorf .

At the end of Pastor Johann Christoph Metelmann's term of office, the preacher's widow's house burned down on August 4, 1828 and in 1829 lightning is said to have struck the church.

Pastor Ulrich Friedrich Conrad Bauch describes the church in 1838: The church is 64 feet long and 29 feet wide, 17 feet high, has two to the north, three to the east and three old arched windows to the south, with a total of eight arched windows. resting on strong beams, painted the same color as all chairs. The floor of the church has been paved throughout with burned stones, several chairs, such as the court, confession, preacher, women, Gr. Niendorfer Hof- and Turloffer Försterstuhl are laid out with boards, in the chairs where these are missing, as well as in front of the banks in front of the altar, there is a board for the feet.

A parish building conference took place every two years, usually in February. The pastor drew up a list of the damage to the patrons of the churches on Wamckow and Prestin, both of whom invited the Grand Ducal Office of Crivitz and the administrative authorities of the domains of the Grand Ducal household to the conference. These could usually be represented. It was almost always about the costs, for example for the building materials, the wages of the craftsmen and the hand and clamping services by the villagers. The two damaged bells were cast around in 1845 by the bell founder Illies in Waren . After extensive restoration under the patronage of Jobst Heinrich von Bülow, the church was re-inaugurated on November 25, 1855 by Pastor Stiebler, it delighted with a lovely sight, especially with the harmony that prevails in the interior decoration ...

Between the two world wars, no construction work is mentioned at the church in Wamckow, the pastor Johann Albrecht Schlettwein, who had been there since 1929, belonged to the Reichsgruppe Deutscher Christians from 1934 and the subsequent pastor Karl Koch was a member of the NSDAP from 1930.

On May 23, 1930, Adolf Friedrich Lorenz, the Schwerin conservationist for architectural monuments of the historical period, placed the Wamckow Church under the preservation order under the Monument Protection Act of December 15, 1929.

On June 8, 1980, the exterior renovation of the church, carried out at the expense of the parish, was celebrated. The Mecklenburgische Kirchenzeitung wrote about this on June 29, 1980 … the old church had just been renovated, neat new windows greeted us from the outside, the inside had been prepared. On March 26, 1981, the Schwerin Institute for the Preservation of Monuments and Pastor Rosteck visited the Wamckow Church on how to proceed further with the interior restoration, especially the color of the room with the imitation marble. However, another ten years would pass before measures on the desolate state of construction were initiated after the fall of the Wall . The enlarged damaged areas on the church roof with the sponge infestation, the soaked field stone walls and the unsecured artifacts were seen as focal points from 1991 onwards. In 1992 the complex renovation of the church began with the damp walls and the peeling paint on the wall. Large parts of the ceiling beams of the roof structure and boards of the ceiling were also replaced due to sponge infestation. Under the newly laid octagonal floor panels there is now underfloor heating, the wall surfaces have been restored to their historical state by the restorers Bresien and Koch and the interior has been equipped with subtle lighting.

With a festive divine service in the presence of the then Prime Minister Berndt Seite , the re-inauguration of the restored church took place on June 2, 1996 by Provost Eckehardt Schaefer. At the same time, the state superintendent Ernst-Friedrich Roettig inaugurated the new organ. In addition to the ecumenical use of the church, the parish and the Rethmann family organize a variety of cultural events in the small village church every year.

Exterior

The church is a simple rectangular stone building without a choir or tower. The building corners of the field stone walls and the window and door openings were made of brick. There is no tower, but there is supposed to have been one that burned down a long time ago. The gable roof is covered with plain tiles. There is an iron cross on the west gable and a weather vane with the inscription from 1684 on the east gable . Both gable triangles are half-timbered with a double window and board hatches and are lined with bricks . The south side has three pointed arched windows with stepped brick walls. On the north side there are only two ogival windows with stepped window walls. Five grave slabs with inscriptions from the von Engel and von Dessin families were attached to the walled up and plastered former chapel door with round arches on the north side. On the east gable there are three pointed arched windows with upper stained glass. The arched door in the west gable was provided with a double-leaf bar grille door in front of it in the shape of a cross.

The church is accessed today through the south portal with a stepped pointed arch and recessed, plastered round arches. The simple oak plank door has two forged iron hinges, two support clamps, a door handle and a bolt. Until 1945 you could read under the arch: Enter through his gate, walk through his courtyard corridor, praise him with beautiful words, give him praise, honor and thanks, because the Lord is always full of grace and validity.

Interior

Interior with altar, patronage box and new organ 2012

The interior of the church is an undivided space with a flat, painted wooden beam ceiling . The wooden ceiling is something special because it depicts the conflict between heaven and hell. The current painting is a reconstruction of the old ceiling painting, some of which was still there. The wooden beams bear paintings of snakes with strongly stylized snake heads, with stars inserted on the wooden ceiling in between.

According to the findings from 1991, the room version dates from around 1700 and was restored until 1996. The walls with an illusionistic architectural structure show imitating marble. The room layout towards the choir is achieved by stucco pilasters on the walls. The walls of the hall space for the community were given a simple square painting. Remains of an older painting were still found under the square painting. What is striking in the Wamckow Church is the inclusion of the church stalls with their high fencing in this marble structure through a rather elaborate painting. In Mecklenburg churches it is very rare to find marbling of church stalls.

A painting depicting the Last Supper hangs above the exit door on the south side.

altar

The three-storey altarpiece in architectural forms consists of parts from different epochs. The main piece is the remainder of a Gothic triptych and shows God the Father in a ray mandorla with Christ as the Man of Sorrows, probably made in the second half of the 15th century. The two side wings were created during the Romantic era and show the Annunciation on the left and the adoration of the child by Mary and Joseph on the right with some shepherds in the background. Above that, in the altar, there is a painting from the 19th century depicting the resurrection, and angel figures can be seen in the side wings. It is said to have been painted by Prof. Pein in 1855. The whole thing is crowned with a radiant sun. If you look at the marbling above the predella, you can see two faces there. Such jokes were not uncommon in the baroque era.

In the predella there was a picture of the Lord's Supper from the 17th century with inscriptions on the side. Eat this is my body and drink this is my blood . It was restored with financial help from the Rethmann family and has been hanging over the southern door since 2013. Today's picture was created in 1854 by Prof. Pein and shows Jesus with the chalice that he wants to offer his disciples. The Predella was secured and restored in 1996 by the restorers Matthias Bresien and Rolf Krause from Hundorf . Under the paraments was a white embroidered altar cover. The conventual Ina von Bülow from Wamckow, who lives in the Dobbertiner monastery , made the altar ceiling from the fabric of the former domina Hedwig von Quitzow and donated it to the church in Wamkow.

To the south of the altar is the two-storey patron 's box with four von Bülow coats of arms.

  • J (obst) H (inrich) Bülow on Wamckow 1855.
  • M (aria) von Bülow, b. von Blücher ad home Bobbin 1855.
  • Ernst von Bülow rubble on Wamckow.
  • Mathilde von Bülow-Trümmer, b. Baroness of Maltzan . Anton von Bülow born Dessin, Elsa von Bülow, b. from Uslar .

To the right of the altar is one of the few confessionals in the Protestant churches in Mecklenburg. The wooden baptism with a brass bowl dates from 1889. On a wooden pillar using the lower part of a tabernacle, probably from the 15th century, which is also painted in marbled style. Under the organ gallery there is an old, white-and-gray painted sacrament house from the Catholic era. The tendril painting inside indicates a great age. After the restoration, it now has a light gray, slightly marbled paint with red-brown intermediate parts. A rare and well-preserved work of art from the pre-Reformation period.

pulpit

The wooden pulpit , a simple Renaissance pulpit, dates from 1694. Christ as Salvator mundi and the four evangelists in the panels of the parapet. As can be seen from the inscription, the pulpit is a foundation of the main landlord of Groß Niendorf, Valentin Schwulges and his wife Anna Burmeister out of gratitude for the salvation from great danger.

Memorial plaque

Around 1900 the burial chapel of the von Bülows was demolished on the north side, the coffin coats of arms and coffin inscriptions of the Bülow families are on the three-part, oak memorial plaque that was attached to the north wall inside the church on July 10, 1901. The left panel has been a reminder of the von Dessin family since 1680, the right panel since 1868 of the von Bülow family. According to the order of the family coats of arms of Dessin, coffin fittings with the name of Dessin and the coat of arms can be seen in the church in Wamckow.

It was unveiled on Sunday Exaudi in May 1922 during a service by the Dobbertiner carpenter Roloff, based on the pattern of the panel he had made for the Dobbertiner monastery church .

Panel paintings

Panel paintings on the parapet of the organ gallery with frieze III organ 2012

On the parapet of the west gallery there are ten New Testament panel paintings that were painted in 1855 by the painter Prof. Pein on behalf of Marie von Bülow. Marie, born von Blücher won a lawsuit against relatives for assets. With the money she had the Wamckow Church renovated and decorated. It is no coincidence that the biblical images bear the faces of those of Bülow. Prof. Pein immortalized the landlord as one of the scribes. The following topics are shown from left to right.

  • Jesus in the Temple, Luke 2: 22–24
  • Jesus as 12 years old in the temple with scribes, Luke 2, 41–52

organ

Play table Friese organ 2012

The organ (I / P / 6) was built in 1884 by the Schwerin organ builder Friedrich Friese III . 294 pipes made of wood and metal were installed. The neo-Gothic flat prospectus, made up of three pointed-arch pipe fields, ends above with straight rows of palmettes. The console is on the left with tabs on both sides of the keyboard.

From January 2003, an extensive restoration was carried out by the organ builder Andreas Arnold from Mecklenburg Orgelbau in Plau . Due to the age of the organ, the leather and wire goods were very worn. The leather was eaten away by martens. The organ was unplayable because the front pipes and 20 pipes were missing in the organ.

In the acceptance report of the Güstrower organ consultant Wolfgang Leppin from March 29, 2003 it can be read: The pipes to be reproduced were made in the best quality. The technical work is carried out cleanly and precisely and the post-intonation and mood are a feast for the ears. No deficiencies were found during the technical and sound check. The new wind generator, installed in a protective box on the right side of the housing, runs quietly and supplies sufficient wind. This Friese organ also has a rarity to offer, because it has the pitch of today. The solemn re-inauguration took place on Easter Monday, April 21, 2003 by the Oberkirchenrat Andreas Flade from Schwerin. This would not have been possible without the generous support and commitment of the Rethmann family.

To the right of the altar, a second organ (I / P / 5) built by the Plau master organ builder Wolfgang Nußbücker was installed as early as 1996 , as the historic Friese organ had not been playable for the past 45 years. The organ consecration was carried out on June 3, 1996 by the Schwerin state superintendent Ernst-Friedrich Roettig.

Wamckow now has something unique to offer: concerts with and for two organs can be played in the small village church.

Bells

In front of the west gable of the church is a free-standing belfry with two bronze bells measuring 0.99 meters and 0.68 meters in diameter. The name CONCORDIA is on the larger bell and PIETAS on the smaller one. Both have the Bülow-Pressentin'sche Allianz coat of arms with the year 1836. They are decorated with tendrils and refer to Major Gottlieb Friedenreich von Bülow, Majorin Johanne Wilhelmine von Bülow, nee. from Pressentin, and to Pastor Ulrich Friedrich Conrad Bauch. They were cast in 1845 by the tin and bell caster Johann Carl Ludwig Illies in Waren .

The previous bells were cast in 1786 by the bell founder FV Schulz in Rostock under the patronage of Gerd Carl von Dessin and the pastor Samuel Andreas Friderici . Since both bells showed cracks and got worse, the desire for new bells arose.
