Martinskirche (Stuttgart-Möhringen)
The Protestant Martinskirche (also called Filderdom ) is a Protestant church building in Stuttgart-Möhringen .
history
In the 15th century, a Romanesque predecessor building stood on the site of today's neo-Gothic St. Martin's Church . Two columns of this have been preserved, which today adorn the inside of the hospital gate. This previous church had become dilapidated, in 1459 the church tower collapsed. It was decided to build a new building. The architect in charge was the builder Hans Böblinger. Based on two keystones - one in the late Gothic reticulated vault in the choir, the other in the lower tower vault - the completion of the church can be dated to the year 1464.
Around 1595 the interior was improved; and a new baptismal font was dedicated; In addition, the construction of galleries began and an organ was probably also built on the gallery.
The previous building of today's church became too small for the growing parish in the course of the 19th century. In 1852/1853 the dilapidated church tower was renewed and equipped with a neo-Gothic stone top with a cast-iron pyramid and lantern. The large west portal with the window above was also created in the middle of the 19th century. The old church was demolished in 1853, and between 1853 and 1855 the neo-Gothic nave was built according to plans by the Stuttgart builder Christian Friedrich von Leins . The church was consecrated on November 11, 1855 (name day of the church saint, Saint Martin) .
After serious structural defects had been remedied and a general overhaul in 1935, the Martinskirche was almost completely destroyed by a bomb hit in March 1944. Reconstruction began in 1948 and the church was consecrated again on October 16, 1949. Due to the economic situation at the time, it was only reconstructed in a simplified manner; especially without the high-walled old vaults. At the end of the 20th century, the outside of the church was renovated.
organ
After the reconstruction, a new organ was built by EF Walcker & Cie. In 1951 . (Ludwigsburg) inaugurated; Initially only the main work and part of the pedal work were realized ; The instrument was completed in 1955. A technical repair took place in 1989/1990. Nevertheless, the instrument repeatedly proved to be prone to failure, so it was decided to build a new one.
The new organ is currently being completed by Johannes Klais Orgelbau . The instrument has 44 stops on three manual works and pedal work, including two transmissions in the pedal (No. 34 and 36). The instrument is scheduled to be inaugurated in 2020.
