Cambs Chapel

The Cambs Chapel is a church building in Cambs , a municipality in the Ludwigslust-Parchim district in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania . The listed building belongs to the Evangelical Lutheran parish of Zittow -Retgendorf in the Wismar provost in the Mecklenburg parish of the northern church .

history

The village of Cambs on the north bank of the lake of the same name was first mentioned in 1331 and was then owned by several noble families, including von Preen , von Stralendorff , von Halberstadt and von Plessen . Cambs remained in the possession of the von Plessen family until 1795. The Cambs chapel was already a branch (daughter church) of Zittow at that time , with it the chapels of Langen Brütz , Zaschendorf and Brahlstorf . In Brahlstorf, the chapel is said to have been demolished around 1750.

Between 1817 and 1889 the Diestel family bought eleven properties in the vicinity. In 1818 Johann Peter Heinrich Diestel also acquired the property with church patronage in Cambs. From 1855 to 1856 Diestel had today's small half-timbered church built. In Langen Brütz , too, the Cambs landowner Diestel had a simple brick building built as a village church in 1859.

Since the chapel was already regarded as an unimportant building by Schlie , it was not included as a monument under the GDR's Monument Protection Act of June 19, 1975. In the years from 1977 to 1981, extensive renovations were carried out by the parish. After the roof repairs and the renewal of the field stone base, the western half-timbered gable also had to be completely renewed. Inside the church, the walls were plastered and painted, the gallery was reinstalled and the floor was laid with clinker tiles. The pulpit, altar, stalls and the wooden ceiling were restored by the Schwerin palace painter Klemkow. The inauguration of the church in Cambs took place on September 20, 1980, the festive service was held by the state superintendent Welligerhof.

Building description

Exterior

The small rectangular half-timbered church, twelve axes long and five axes wide, stands on a masonry plinth. The gable roof is covered with plain tiles and crowned by a square roof tower above the west gable. The octagonal pyramid roof is clad with rectangular slates and has a weather valve and a ball on the top .

At the four corners of the building, in the gable triangle and on both sides of the tower, the framework is provided with St. Andrew's crosses for stability and decoration . The north and south walls each have four box windows with muntin division.

Interior

The rectangular interior is equipped with a flat beamed ceiling. The ceiling painting dates from the beginning of the 20th century, similar to the stylistically related painting on the parapet of the west gallery. The bench stalls have empire-shaped cheeks similar to those in the Zittower Church from the beginning of the 19th century.

The altar structure has the shape of a painted back wall framed by columns with a wooden crucifix smaller than life and certainly comes from the previous building. The two pot-shaped cast tin altar candlesticks, based on the monogram O. v. Plessen, a foundation by Otto von Plessen from the late 18th century. The former pulpit was dismantled during the last renovation and its pulpit was placed on the ground floor. According to the inscription, the only small bell with a diameter of 0.68 meters was cast in 1855 by JC Haack and Son in Rostock. At that time, the church patron was Johann Peter Heinrich Diestel.

During the renovation of the interior of the church, a winter church was built in the west gallery and utility rooms in the basement. This means that the chapel can be used for a variety of events.
