description
The towerless, tile-roofed church is a work of brick Gothic . A smaller choir with buttresses is attached to the rectangular nave . The west gable is slightly asymmetrical. The more richly structured east gable of the hall church is covered by the choir. On the north side the smoothly plastered stone wall is provided with incised joints; this type of plaster is probably the original one.
Next to the church is a belfry with a bell from 1704. The church is in the middle of the cemetery with a well-tended stone wall.
Furnishing
The Langenhanshagen church is empty. The altar from (around 1500) has been relocated, as is the pulpit (early 17th century) and the baptismal font (1650). There are also no significant glass windows in the church at the moment. The organ , made by Barnim Grüneberg in 1879 , is in the Mecklenburg Organ Museum in Malchow; The organ gallery is preserved . The original seating is also housed in other places.
The ribbed vault in the choir, which is very unusual for a simple village church, is worth seeing . The hall has a wooden beam ceiling.
A grave slab embedded in the ground commemorates the noble lords of Langenhanshagen: Mathias Friedrich von Bibow (1671–1756) and his wives Margaretha Sophia von Jörcken and Magthalen Eleonora von Bassewitz.
