The Buchar Church is a church building in Buchar, a district of the town Altentreptow in the Mecklenburg Lake District , Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania . The church belongs to the parish of Klatzow in the Demmin provost in the Pomeranian parish of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Northern Germany .

history

In the 14th century there was a chapel in Bukhar , which was subordinate to the Klatzow Church . In 1331 Ludolf Pinnow left the patronage rights to Verchen Monastery . In 1335, Bishop Friedrich von Cammin confirmed the separation of the Buchar chapel from Klatzow and the establishment of its own parish.

In the 16th century, the Buchar church and the Pripsleben church belonged to the Barkow parish church . In the church visit of August 19, 1575 under Duke Ernst Ludwig it was found that the Barkow parish could not have its own preacher. The parish was therefore dissolved and the three churches of St. Peter's Church in Altentreptow were subordinated.

According to Johann Ernst Fabri , there was usually no preaching in the Bukhara church towards the end of the 18th century. At the beginning of the 20th century the church was replaced by a new building.

Buildings and equipment

The church was built on a rectangular floor plan made of hewn field stones with architectural elements made of brick in the neo-Romanesque style. There are three arched windows on each side, and another is in the east wall. The east gable is structured by round-arched plaster panels and a panel cross. There are three small dormer windows on each side of the tiled gable roof .

The square west tower is three-story brick and covered with wooden shingles. It is divided by corner pilasters and arched windows. The top of the tower is a folding roof with four pairs of diamond halves and four shield gables, each with two small arched windows. In the round-arched west portal of the tower there is a wicker door. In the tympanum above is the inscription “I am the door, if someone enters through me, he will be saved. Joh. 10. v. 9. “attached.

The interior of the hall church is designed as a wooden barrel . The wooden furnishings come from the construction period at the beginning of the 20th century. It includes the altar table with a cross, the pulpit , the church and pastor's stalls as well as a lectern and an octagonal baptism.

On the west gallery is an organ from Barnim Grüneberg's workshop . The space under the gallery is separated by windows as a winter church.

Commemorative plaques with the names of parishioners who died in the First World War are attached to the balustrade of the gallery . A simple cross made from a birch trunk and small wooden plaques with names are reminiscent of the fallen in World War II .
