The Zehna village church is a mighty stone building, probably built at the end of the 13th century. Zehna is located in the south of the Rostock district in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and belongs to the Rostock provost in the Mecklenburg parish of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Northern Germany (Northern Church) .

history

When, on April 16, 1291, Prince Nicolaus von Werle gave the Güstrow Cathedral Foundation the patronage of the church in Zehna , which belonged to the Archdeaconate of the Güstrow Cathedral Provost , there were already two villages, Groß Zehna and Wendisch Zehna (Slavica Cene).

Groß Zehna was a populated farming village and Wendisch Zehna was a larger manor than a knight's seat on which the old noble family von Zehna sat. Machorius (Magorius) de Cene was named in 1263 as the first knight on Zehna and witness for Prince Nicolaus von Werle. His son Machorius was a knight in the entourage of the princes of Werle from 1270 to 1296 on Zehna.

On July 13, 1298 in Güstrow , the bishop Petrus zu Cammin also confirmed the patronage of the church in Zehna to the Güstrow cathedral monastery. In 1357 Machorius von Brüsehaver, whose father had married a daughter of de Cene, was pawnbroker of both Zehna for seven years.

But already in 1364 he was replaced by the von Passow family . Heino de Partzow married the last heir to the knight Machorius de Cene and removed the liens of von Brüsehaver to Zehna. From 1373 the Passow miners Henneke, Christian and Godeke were constantly in feud with the Dobbertin monastery .

From 1400 to 1440 Carsten von Passow sat on Zehna, Vietgest and Bellin. From 1465 to 1506 his son Carsten owned the estate in Zehna. He gave the Dobbertin monastery money several times because his daughters Adelheid and Anna had been nuns there since 1502 . In 1506 he put three knight horses against Lübeck . From 1520 to 1564 Mathias von Passow owned the Zehna estate with shares in Bellin. His grave slab from 1591 is in the Zehna church.

From 1605 the patronage of the Zehna Church, previously owned by the Güstrow Cathedral, was left to the ducal Mecklenburg court junior Adam von Passow. The legal successors were the Barons von Sala, who received the allodial letter about Zehna and Bellin in 1675 and in 1689 also the concession of church patronage from Duke Gustav Adolph von Mecklenburg-Güstrow . Angelius von Sala was still the personal physician of Duke Gustav Adolph in 1662. From 1741 Joachim Amtsberg was pastor in Zehna. He was elected as early as 1738, but the Duke had challenged the election.

In 1781, Count Hans Ernst von Hardenberg took over the ownership of Zehna, Bellin and Steinbeck with the patronage of the Church of Zehna and Bellin.

At the beginning of 1796 Pastor Christoph Heinrich Hane and a number of pastors complained about the now prevalent thievery and begging in the country. Whole gangs of foreign beggars roam the villages every day and we have to spend almost a fourth of our income to buy the sometimes impertinent guests. The pastors had all been robbed and we are all so frightened and terrified that we cannot go to bed quietly one night. During the tenure of Pastor Julius Ludwig Vitense, the thatched parsonage burned down on the night of March 1, 1872, and all church registers and parishes were destroyed by flames.

Building history

The church in Zehna was mentioned around 1281 and was built by the de Cene families. It stands on the highest point of the knight's seat, is one of the oldest churches in this area and is much too big for Zehna alone.

As with almost all Mecklenburg village churches in these times, the field stones in the country were also used for church building in Zehna. The massive substructure of the west tower looks like a defensive tower. It is therefore also assumed that the lower part of the church tower on the southern slope towards Lake Zehna once belonged to a castle, which has not yet been documented.

After the foundation walls made of field stones, the choir was vaulted and plastered, as demonstrated by medieval paintwork. The construction seam between the belt arch and the nave suggest that there was boarding towards the ship and that the vaulting took place later. But all components show a uniform design with hewn field stone blocks at the corners and walls made of field stones built up in layers and layers.

Restoration dates in the east vault of the choir

Over centuries, even the Thirty Years War left no visible traces, so hardly anything is known about the building history and the building load of the Zehna church.

The renovation dates 1612, 1783, 1817, 1852 and 1919 suggest, however, that renovation and construction work must have taken place during these years. Despite the soot on the walls and vaults from the iron stove in the church, the restorer Heiko Brandner was able to prove several paintings in 1998. In the years 1873, 1817, 1852 and 1919 the nave and the choir were given white liming without any further design. Around 1852 and 1919, the buttresses made of small-format bricks could also have been added to the tower substructure. One each on the north and south side near the western corner and one on the west side near the southern corner.

A memory of the last Georgi family owners are the stained glass windows that Dr. Georgi had the Hamburg glass painter Christel Kuball made.

It was not until 50 years later in the summer of 1971 that we heard of a badly dilapidated church tower and its demolition. Around 1970 the stone masonry of the tower had collapsed completely and the tower roof only stood on the wooden half-timbered construction.

Due to the missing roof tile covers and penetrating moisture, large areas of the outer field stones on the lower western side of the tower had crashed. The exposed brickwork was badly weathered and washed out, the false ceilings were no longer secure due to the open roof and some rafters and beam heads were destroyed. The framework around the belfry no longer had any formwork and was exposed to the elements. After a site inspection on September 7, 1971, the report of June 21, 1972 also noted ... further details can only be given on the spot according to the available material . After a further inspection on June 27, 1973 and investigations into various variants, ranging from total demolition and partial demolition to reconstruction of the tower, the church building brigade from Güstrow began to secure and renovate the tower area in the summer of 1974. The entire lower rock masonry was renewed and anchored. Then the entire wooden inner tower construction was secured, provided with reinforced concrete ring beams and lined with hollow blocks . In 1975, after scaffolding had been procured for a double pole scaffolding, the manual repair of the damage could begin. The upper part of the tower was provided with mud plaster, the spire and the lower roof ledge were re-covered and the church roof was repaired. In 1991 a number of improvements were made to the church and the cemetery to mark the 700th anniversary of Zehna. In 2004 the roofs of the tower, nave and sacristy were covered with new roof tiles. The 235 meter long cemetery wall was rebuilt as a dry stone wall from 2001 to 2005 and the entrance gate was also rebuilt.

Building description

Exterior

The rectangular nave, built at the end of the 13th century, is joined by the substructure of the almost square tower in the same width and in the same wall structure. The substructure has the same height as the nave, the upper part of the tower consists of brickwork with field stone inlays. The lower tower was built from rough-hewn field stones by rock-breakers. Only the larger corner cuboids were carefully hewn to create a vertical tower. On the northwest corner there is a special stone above the tower foundation, the chessboard stone . If you had to wait for a stone transport, the stone bat operated with the checkerboard pattern. The buttresses that were subsequently added to the tower with bricks on both sides have no interlocking with the field stone masonry. The tapering upper west tower, plastered with brick and lime sludge, ends with a tent roof . The roof construction of the nave and choir is a continuous, steep collar beam roof and designed as a gable roof with plain tile roofing with double roofing .

The oldest components are the square choir with the dome-shaped domical vault and the cross-rib vaulted north sacristy . Both have an elaborately bricked and partially plastered pointed arch gable above the tooth frieze, which was inserted as a horizontal decorative ribbon. Three-quarter columns are set in the walls of the three window group of the east gable and the pairs of windows of the north and south facade with their sloping walls and reveals. The west, south and priest portals also have simply stepped and set three-quarter bars.

Interior

The choir is spanned by an eight-rib vault. The single-bay nave has a late Gothic ribbed vault as the ceiling. Molded bricks were used for the ribs. The wall surfaces are structured by paired lancet windows. The tower has a wooden framework inside, which is only integrated in the east wall and supports the bell cage and the tent roof.

During the first examinations carried out in 1998, the restorers were able to prove that the walls and vaults in the nave and in the choir were painted in the Middle Ages and that the nave was first painted in the late Middle Ages. As the first common color version of the entire church interior, the Renaissance version from 1612 could be exposed on individual surfaces. The choir was more elaborately designed with figural and ornamental motifs than the nave. The interior renovation, which began in 2009, was completed in 2013 with the windows.

altar

Interior, view of the choir with altar, 2013

Between 1530 and 1540, the cathedral monastery in Güstrow, whose chapter held the patronage of Zehna, had the altar shrine made there, presumably from the same workshop in Güstrow as the cathedral apostles, because some figures in Zehna are very similar to the Güstrow apostles . With the figures of saints and pictures, the Zehna Altar Shrine is a typical devotional image of the Catholic faith in the late Middle Ages. It is assigned to the workshop of Claus Berg , as are the altars in the village churches in Lancken, district of Rome (Mecklenburg) , near Lübz and Eixen . The shrine consists of the middle shrine, two box wings with the apostles in two rows one above the other and on the back two painting wings and a fixed wing. Oak was used as the material.

In the middle shrine of Our Lady with Child in a chapel-like niche. In the side compartments four figures of saints under vaulted canopies with tendrils. Left St. Katharina and Christophorus, on the right St. Mary Magdalene and Antonius. On the inside of the box wing the twelve apostles in two registers one above the other, inscribed on the plinth. Panel paintings on the outside of the wings. On the Sunday page eight scenes from the life of Mary and the childhood of Jesus: Mary's visit to the temple, marriage to Joachim, proclamation to Mary, visitation, birth of Jesus, circumcision, adoration of the Magi, offering in the temple. On the weekday side there were once four large-figured saints, only the paintings on the right painting and inactive wing have survived: St. Paul and Sebastian. Copper engravings from Israhel van Meckenem's cycle of Mary are to be accepted as models.

Sgraffito in the right wing of the box, upper register, behind the middle figure of St. Bartholomäus carved into the ground chalk: D [omi] ni no [ster]. Dum Sigmund [us] ut Lukas su [n] t tabum meum secundum tantumdie unus unii Peccabit anma mea, about Lukas are my poison as often as the other day, a.

The restored altar in the church was consecrated in a festive service on June 19, 1991. The salvation of the altar had been called for since 1910. But it was not until the summer of 1974 that the then chief curator Johannes Voss from the Institute for Monument Preservation in Schwerin began to secure the paintings after considerable losses on the picture panels. The restoration was carried out in 1975 by the restorer Ms. Gubsch from Lohmen.

pulpit

The wooden pulpit is from 1575 and is supported by free-standing pentagonal Corinthian columns. In the parapet there are carved portraits by Pastor Hinrick Gösler and church lawyers Achim Büter, Achim Schmidt and Hinrick Nienkerke. The names Chim Büter, Marten Büter, Hinrich Büter, Hans Büter and Marten Büter, who were probably the founders of the pulpit, can be read on the sound cover. The paintings on the back wall of the pulpit are from 1702.

Baptismal font

Baptismal font, 2013

With a diameter of over one meter, the granite funnel in Zehna is one of the early Romanesque fonts. The wall thickness of the cup is also above average at 14 centimeters. The craftsmanship was done by the stone on stone knocking technique , as can be seen on the rough surface. Connection holes for a hood cover and traces of rust under the upper edge of the peaks indicate that it was manufactured before 1160. As usual at both Wends , this Fifth had stood in front of the church. The bowl and foot have no figurines, but impress with their massive shape.

The fifth, head and foot side by side, was still in the tower room around 1900. Since 1936 it has stood in front of the south wall near the pulpit and is used for baptisms. It has the following dimensions: total height 98 cm, bowl alone 52 cm, width 101 cm, wall thickness 14 cm, baptismal bowl width 63 cm, depth 29 cm.

organ

Organ builder Paul Rother, Hamburg, 2013

Today's organ (I / P / 6) was built in 1919 by the Hamburg organ builder Paul Rother . Born in Schweidnitz in 1871 , where he learned from the organ builders Schlag & Söhne , he built the only new building for Mecklenburg in 1919 in the church in Zehna. The parapet organ with the console on the left was rarely used after 1945. In 1953 the organ was willfully destroyed and the pipes were lost by young people from the village. The organ was not playable until 2016. It was restored in the summer of 2016 by the Mecklenburg organ builder from Plau am See . For the inauguration on October 16, 2016, the organ expert of the Mecklenburg church district, Friedrich Drese, played the Paul Rother organ.

There must have been a predecessor organ before 1689. The new landowner Hans Christian Sala had the small baroque organ built. His coat of arms adorns the organ front with putti and ornaments. The von Sala family owned Zehna from 1689 to 1781.

Bells

Three bells once hung in the tower , the oldest from 1593. A fourth, the smallest, was attached to the east end of the roof ridge. The middle and smaller ones were cast in 1854 by the court bell founder Peter Martin Hausbrand in Wismar . The larger one had the well-known inscription CONSOLOR VIVA * FLEO MORTUA * PELLO NOCIVA ( I comfort the living, I cry for the dead, I drive away what is harmful ). Today a bronze bell still hangs in the belfry, swinging on a straight wooden yoke in a north-south direction.

Grave slab

Gravestone of Matthias von Passow, 2013
Epitaph for Matthias von Pssow, 2013

In front of the altar is the grave slab of Matthias von Passow with a bas-relief of the deceased. The inscription reads: ANNO 1564 THE 12 SEPTEMBRIS IS THE NOBLE AND ERNSTVESTHER MATIAS PASSOW SLEEPED AT ZENE IN GODT DEM HERN SALICH. Matthias von Passow fought against the Turks in Hungary when he was young, vouched for Duke Ulrich von Mecklenburg and died in Zehna in 1564. His wife Anna von Finecke and their sons Günther and Adam donated the tombstone. Since Anna died in 1590, it is also a memorial stone for her death.

epitaph

From the same Mathias von Passow there is still a small coat of arms epitaph made of sand-lime stone from 1591 with his name and that of his married household Anna Finecke. In the upper part the coats of arms of the von Passow families are shown on the left and that of Finecken on the right. In the lower part, which is kept dark, you can read yellow on black: ANNO 1564 ON THE 12TH OF SEPTEMBRIS THE NOBLE AND ERNVHESTER MATHIAS PASSOW SLEEPED AT ZENE IN GODT DES HERN SALICH AS A 5 YEAR WEDDED 4 Sons, A DAUGHTER BREWED. 1591. Anno 1564, September 12th, the noble and honorable Mathias Passow passed away blessedly asleep at Zehna in God the Lord when he (has) four sons and a daughter lived 5 years in marriage in 1591.

Matthias von Passow married 19-year-old Anna von Finecke in 1599 at the late age of 58. The age difference was 39 years. They had five children in their five-year marriage.
