Wildau village church
The Protestant village church Wildau is a field stone church in Wildau-Wentdorf , a district of the municipality of Dahmetal in the Teltow-Fläming district in Brandenburg .
history
The sacred building was built at the beginning of the 13th century. Not much is known about the further history of the building. The experts in the Dehio manual suspect that the upper part of the church tower was renewed around 1690. Around this time, the previously Gothic window openings were presumably redesigned in baroque style. Two doors on the north and south sides were built in 1675. In the 1980s, the parish rebuilt a previously dismantled vestibule at the choir .
architecture
The hall church was built from small, but layered layered field stones , which were only slightly carved except for the corners. On the south wall of the nave there are two large, segment-arch-shaped windows in the upper area towards the tower, one large and one significantly smaller towards the choir. In the direction of the west tower, the viewer will find another smaller opening underneath, which is accompanied by a portal bordered with reddish brick , which is located slightly to the left below the central window. An opening can be seen in the slightly retracted choir, which is partially covered by a subsequently attached, rectangular porch. It can be entered through a portal also enclosed in reddish brick. There is also a coupled , triple-stepped lead glass window with a column. The field stones in this area are significantly larger and more unevenly layered than is the case in the rest of the structure. The apse is also retracted and has only one centrally positioned, beehive-shaped window and a conical roof . In the gable of the choir, field stones were used in the lower area, above wall stones, which form a cross. There are two large windows on the north wall of the church. The third window to the west is significantly smaller. It is complemented by another opening and a gate, the position of which is roughly identical to that on the south wall. They come from the time the church was built. In the west of the building stands the slightly recessed tower, which is square in its floor plan and was built from field stones up to about the height of the eaves of the nave. The upper floor consists of half-timbering with black wood, the compartment of which was filled with reddish brick. Two small beehive-shaped openings on the west and east side and three similar openings on the north and south side in the middle area serve as a sound arcade . Above the tower is a hipped roof with a tower ball and a cross or weather vane. The nave and choir are covered with a red beaver tail and each have a bat dormer per side and component. It is noticeable that there is no portal on the west tower, only a small gate on the north side.
Furnishing
The pulpit dates from the late 17th century and shows Jesus Christ and the four evangelists on the basket between corner pillars . The shape of the sound cover is reminiscent of a crown. The fifth was made of sandstone in 1588. The kuppa originally also bore the pictures of the four evangelists; however, Matthew is missing . In the apse there is a wooden sacrament house, which probably dates from the beginning of the 15th century. A triumphal cross group was created in the late 17th century. The church stalls were built in 1697.
The northern gallery dates from 1617, while the semicircular west gallery was built in 1748. There is an organ by Ferdinand Dinse with a prospectus from around 1700, on which there are two putti making music . Two oval medallions adorned with acanthus are attached to the side, depicting Moses and the Adoration of the Shepherds. In the vestibule there is a church drawer from the 13th or 14th century and an epitaph that commemorates Johann Georg Fischer , who died in 1746 . Other church furnishings include a chest in the choir, which could be dated to the year 1205.
The interior of the nave has a flat roof. The choir was originally built with a ribbed vault, but at the time of the baroque redesign it was provided with a ribbed vault. A half-dome is built into the apse; The apse and triumphal arch are rounded.
