The Groß Toitin Chapel , also known as Groß Toitin Church , is a neo-Romanesque church building in the Groß Toitin district of Jarmen . The field stone building was built in 1860 in place of an older building. The chapel belongs to the parish Jarmen- Tutow in the Demmin provost in the Pomeranian Evangelical Church District .

In 1336 members of the noble families von Heyden and von Kruckow donated a chapel in the Toitin family, which belonged to the von Heyden family. This was dedicated to the saints Otto and Laurentius . Since Toitin belonged to the Jarmen parish , the Jarmen pastor took on the task of reading four masses a year in the chapel, for which he received an additional fee. The patronage of the church lay with the sovereign, as in the case of the Jarmen church with the Prussian king, who had it administered by the office of Klempenow .

In 1860, Woldemar von Heyden (1809–1871), who was the owner of the Groß Toitin estate at the time, was responsible for maintaining the building - although he had no right of patronage - to replace the old chapel with a new building. In neo-Romanesque forms, a hall building was built from neatly hewn field stone blocks, which has a three-sided closure to the east. There is a small open bell tower above the west gable. The bell was made in 1840 in the workshop of the Demmin bell founder F. Schünemann. In front of the west gable is a drawn-in vestibule with a south portal. A brick plaster star was installed above the portal. The edges of the building, a circumferential tooth frieze as well as the walls and frames of the portals and windows are also made of brick.
