Zemmin village church
The Zemmin village church is a 15th-century hall church in the Zemmin district of the Bentzin community in the Vorpommern-Greifswald district . It is the oldest of seven churches and chapels in the Jarmen - Tutow parish in the Demmin provost of the Pomeranian Evangelical Church District .
architecture
The building was erected as a mixed masonry made of field stones and brick and later plastered. It has support pillars at the corners. A ship-wide tower substructure was added later on the west side . In the 18th century the church received a roof tower. This wears a baroque bonnet covered with wooden shingles. In 1853 a polygonal brick choir was added. A patronage box that was added at the same time and connected to the north side of the nave by a pointed arch was demolished in the 20th century. Windows and portals were reshaped in the neo-Gothic style in the 19th century .
In front of the western gable wall is a three-aisled crypt chapel with three yoke groin vaults over square pillars. There are eleven coffins in it, some of which have splendid baroque fittings. The flat coffered ceiling of the hall, painted with ornaments, dates from the 19th century. The painting of the probably older west gallery also dates from this period.
Furnishing
The church has a carved altar from the 16th century, which shows a Madonna in the shrine in a halo crowned by angels; The twelve apostles are depicted in the side wings.
The baroque front of the organ was built around 1700. The organ itself was built by Emil Kaltschmidt from Stettin around 1880 . The instrument has four sounding registers on a manual (range C – f 3 ): Principal 8 ′, Gedackt 8 ′, Octave 4 ′, Flute 4 ′. In addition, the instrument has an attached pedal (range C – f 1 ).
graveyard
In the cemetery is the octagonal, late classicist mausoleum of the von Sobeck family, the last owners of the Zemmin estate , built in 1845 . The building, also known as Sobeck's crypt , has Doric columns and a flat domed roof .
