history

In 1123 the name Lare was first mentioned in a document , presumably in a register of the Hasungen monastery . However, historians deduce from the interpretation of the name that Lohre belongs to the oldest German settlement history and was founded around 400 AD. In the Felsberger Salbuch from 1555 the place is mentioned as Lhoer and 1585 as Lora.

In 1430 , after the death of Otto Hund from Holzhausen , Reinhard von Dalwigk received the fallen village as a fief from the Hessian landgraves .

On February 1, 1971, the previously independent municipality of Lohre was incorporated into the city of Felsberg as part of the regional reform in Hesse .

history

In 1323 a hall church and a rector ecclesiae were first mentioned in a document. Today's church was built as a simple hall building in 1787 instead of a much older church. Two stained-glass choir windows show the apostles Peter and Paul . Lohre is now part of the Evangelical Parish of Niedermöllrich in the Fritzlar-Homberg parish.

organ

The organ dates from 1795 and was built by the Kassel court organ builder Georg Peter Wilhelm , as can be seen from an inscription on the back of the music stand panel. The instrument remained largely untouched over time and is therefore largely preserved in its original form.

In 1843 the arrangement was changed slightly by the organ builder Friedrich Bechstein (Rotenburg / Fulda) and the originally attached pedal was replaced by an independent pedal keyboard with two registers . In 1923 the organ received its first electric fan, but it can still be supplied with air manually by means of the two bellows . 1990–1991, the organ builder Hans Peter Mebold ( Siegen -Breitbach) restored the instrument and fitted one of the two original vacant loops with a sesquialtera . The play cabinet is in the original front. The slider chest instrument has 10 registers on one manual . A manual register is vacant. The playing and stop actions are mechanical.
