background

The Niehuus Chapel is not far from the entrance to the village of Niehuus, on Niehuuser Straße, near Niehuusfeld . Niehuus originally belonged to the Bau parish , but was cut off from the ancestral Bauer church after the referendum in Schleswig (1920) and the establishment of the current German-Danish border . But it was not until much later that Niehuus received its own house of worship with the chapel . It was only inaugurated in 1954.

The chapel is a brick, white-painted church building with some historicizing and modern church building elements. The chapel construction shows a slight visual similarity to the chapel on the Holm in Schleswig . The Niehuus Chapel is not easted , which would be more common, but was oriented towards the southwest . The chapel has recently been registered as a cultural monument for historical reasons and because it has a shaping cultural landscape.

The cemetery administration of the Niehuus cemetery is located in Harrislee at Süderstraße 101 near the Church of Reconciliation . Since 2013 there has been a historical commemorative plaque near the Niehuus cemetery chapel, honoring those who fell from Niehuus, among others, in the Franco-German War of 1870/71 . The plaque was handed over to the former Harrisleer mayor Heinz Petersen in 2013 as part of a cross-border, joint church visit to the Bauer Church by Marius Nörgaard from the church council building. In addition to funeral services, other services are held in the Niehuus Chapel from time to time, for example the annual Christmas Vespers .
