The Iven Church is a late medieval church building in Iven in Western Pomerania .

The elongated, rectangular, tile-roofed building was built in the 17th century on the remains of the wall of the destroyed previous building made of field stones. A boarded church tower with a high helmet rises above the western gable .

The interior has an ornamentally painted beamed ceiling from the 18th century. The furnishings include wooden, baroque built-in galleries from the 17th century, a two-storey altar structure from the mid-18th century with a representation of Gethsemane in the middle, a carved pulpit supported by an angel and a stone inscription plaque for the man who died in 1738 Felix Friedrich von Flemming . The organ was made by Friedrich Albert Mehmel ; it was changed during a renovation in 1989/1990.

The only bell in the church dates from the Middle Ages.

The Protestant parish has been part of the Pasewalk Propstei in the Pomeranian Evangelical Church District of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Northern Germany since 2012 . Before that she belonged to the Greifswald parish of the Pomeranian Evangelical Church .
