Roggentin Chapel
The Protestant Chapel Roggentin is a church building in Roggentin , a district of Mirow in the Mecklenburg Lake District ( Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania ).
Building history
The modern and simple Roggentin Chapel was built in the 1960s as the successor to a half-timbered church. On the front there are five double-leaf windows, which consist of four by five panes that are connected by webs . They are partially damaged by vandalism .
In the 2010s the chapel was newly plastered and insulated. It can be heated using night storage heaters .
Furnishing
The simple furnishings date from the 20th century except for the harmonium , which is said to come from the previous church. The altar barriers of the previous church are in the Schillersdorf church .
A simple table with two candlesticks and a metal cross serves as the altar , with a simple desk on the left and a baptismal stand on the right. The church has a small sacristy in front of the prayer room .
Glass panes from the end of the 17th century have been preserved from the previous church, but are no longer available on site. They are under monument protection.
local community
Since 2010 the chapel has belonged to the Evangelical Lutheran parish in Wesenberg .
Services are very rarely held in the chapel.
Belfry
In front of the chapel is a belfry with a richly decorated, listed bronze bell , which was cast by Johann Christoph Meyer in Neustrelitz in 1789 . It bears the inscription:
SOLI DEO GLORIA - JOHANN CHRISTOPH MEYER IN NEUSTRELITZ - 1789.
