history

The oldest known mention of a chapel in Redderse is a bill from 1593. Since the building was dilapidated, it was replaced by a new building between 1737 and 1738.

The listed chapel at Tivoli in the center of Redderse is a simple half- timbered building, closed in the east in a semi-octagonal shape, with a clear width of 5.7 m and a length of 10.3 m. A roof turret sits on the west gable . A major renovation took place in 1879.

The old pulpit, decorated with precious carvings , and the altarpiece of the Margarethenkirche in Gehrden were installed in the Redders chapel in 1968. The chapel community with around 250 members uses the chapel once a month for church services and for funerals at funerals in the Redders cemetery.

In 1984, 2006 and 2008 minor renovations took place. A thorough renovation of the historic building began in 2017 with the financial contribution of the regional church and parish district . The roof structure was replaced and the leaky roof repaired, the roof turret, inclined by 25 cm to the side, and rotten beams of the framework and crumbling parts of the brickwork replaced. The glass windows should be returned to their original state.
