history

Flemhude

Church of St. George and Mauritius - far right Desmercières crypt

Flemhude owes its name to Flemish traders who here had to reload the goods they transported on the Eider onto wagons. The St. George and Mauritius Church was built by them around 1240 from field stones at a strategically favorable location directly on Lake Flemhude . The merchants probably stored their goods in the attic. Mentioned for the first time in 1316, the exterior of the church has remained almost unchanged to this day. It owes the turret and rococo stucco ceiling to the church patron at the time, Jean Henri Desmercières (1687–1778), whose sarcophagus is in a crypt attached to the church. Inside there are traces from the past centuries: a Romanesque baptismal font , a medieval depiction of the flagellation of Christ , a baroque altar depicting the prayer of Jesus in the garden of Getsemane and a classicist pulpit. The altar was donated in 1685 by the then patron Hans Heinrich Kielmann von Kielmansegg († 1686), a son of Johann Adolph Kielmann von Kielmannsegg , after the entire interior was destroyed in the Thirty Years War. It is one of the earliest works by Theodor Allers , a master of acanthus baroque in Schleswig-Holstein, who also created the very similar altars in the churches of Tellingstedt and Probsteierhagen , as well as the pulpit of the Nikolaikirche in Kiel .

Gatehouse of the Quarnbek estate

The noble Quarnbek estate was first mentioned in 1282. The oldest known owner was a knight Schak Rantzau . The manor house was built as a moated castle in the 16th century . It is shown for the first time on the Rantzau board commissioned by Heinrich Rantzau around 1587 , a family tree. The gatehouse was built in 1671 by Hans Henrich von Kielmansegg with a view of the moated castle. He intensified agriculture and ran the dairy farms Dorotheenhof and Mettenhof , so-called Dutch farms, with religious refugees from the Netherlands . In 1733 Desmercières bought the estate and later bequeathed it to his half-sister. It was through her that it came to the House of Reuss-Köstritz . The moated castle was demolished at the end of the 18th century. The mansion, built in 1903, is privately owned and not open to the public.

Sewer construction

1777–1784 the Eider Canal was built, which also cut through the area of ​​the estate. By expanding the canal to the Kiel Canal, the water level of the Flemhuder See was lowered by 7 meters. Agricultural products could be shipped via the Achterwehr shipping canal .
