Peter-Paul-Kirche Bad Oldesloe
The Peter-Paul-Kirche Bad Oldesloe is a Protestant church in Bad Oldesloe ( Stormarn district ). It is the main church of the Evangelical Lutheran parish of Oldesloe.
Building history
The origins of today's church on the Kirchberg zu Bad Oldesloe go back to the year 1150. At that time the first church in Oldesloe was consecrated by Bishop Vicelin and dedicated to the apostle Peter. This was later torn down and probably replaced by a new building in 1415.
In the years before 1537 the church burned down due to lightning and could not be covered again until 1542. The building was always in disrepair. In 1757 it was demolished and the construction of today's late baroque building began, which was completed in 1763. The builder was Johann Adam Soherr from Lübeck . The Peter and Paul Church was built as a rectangular hall church with a retracted choir and two-storey galleries. Initially without a tower, this was added in 1886 in the neo-Romanesque-neo-Gothic style and has shaped the cityscape with a height of approx. 60 meters ever since.
The great fire of May 22nd 1798 spared the church. In 1802 a roof turret with a small clock bell was erected on the church, donated by King Christian VII. It was renewed in 1837, demolished in 1884 and replaced in 1886 by the current tower of almost 60 meters in neo-Gothic shape.
In 1960 the room was changed and renovated by the architect Otto Andersen . The striking windows in the choir by the glass painter Siegfried Assmann date from this time . A new organ was also installed and the baroque altar and boxes removed. Between 2005 and 2008 the room was renovated again by the architect Gunnar Seidel and the overall baroque impression was restored.
Furnishing

In the chancel there are three large stained glass windows that were created by Siegfried Assmann in 1960 and depict the stories of Simon Petrus , Jesus Christ and Paulus von Tarsus .
Between them are the 12 altar panels and the predella with a representation of the Last Supper, which once belonged to a winged altar carved out of oak by the Hamburg sculptor Henning Heidtrider (1580–1645). They were commissioned by the Church during the Thirty Years' War and completed in 1634. One of them is the depiction of the Lord's Resurrection, which is in the Resurrection Chapel in the Bad Oldesloer cemetery. The central image of the crucifixion that belonged to the altar is lost. The evangelist statues that go with it are located above the panels.
The high baroque altar from 1709, which the Mayor of Oldesloer acquired for 100 Reichstaler and with which he replaced the Heidrider Alter - against the will of the community - is no longer preserved. It was changed several times and destroyed during the renovation in 1960.
On the south side of the chancel is a bronze crucified Christ by Fritz Fleer from 1960.
The altar, baptismal font and ambo were created from white limestone by the sculptor Jo Kley. The base of the altar represents Peter, the rock on which Christ builds his church. The twelve spaces in between refer to the twelve gates of the heavenly Jerusalem .
The statue of the Virgin Mary has found its place on the border to the nave . She dates from the 15th century and was portrayed as a queen of heaven with a crown by an unknown artist. She carries the baby Jesus and that in turn the globe in her hands.
In the nave there are four other evangelist figures that come from a baroque altar from 1709. In 1806 it was taken over by the Oldesloern from the St. Johannis monastery in Lübeck and largely destroyed during the renovation of the church in 1960.
On the northeast side there is an offering box made from a linden trunk from 1590, which depicts poor Lazarus as a colorfully painted relief . It bears the inscription "GEVET DEN ARMEN"
The bronze bell, cast in 1489, is located in the collection room. It was cast in 1560, for which the Oldesloer shoemaker journeyman donated 10 Marks Lübisch and received the attribution of a church chair "for eternity".
It bears the inscription: “ave maria da celorum anno domyni MCCCCLXXXIX yar ghot mi mester wilken krote with hulpe unde poisons of the stenborgher / Hail Mary, Mistress of Heaven! In the year of the Lord 1489, Master Wilken Krotke poured me with the help and gifts of the Stenborgher ”. The two coats of arms on the middle coat probably refer to these Oldeslo families

The F-bell weighing 900 kg was cast from a cracked bell by Johann David Kriesche from Eckernförde in 1765. It bears a Latin inscription that says: "Under the peace-loving, pious and mild government of Frederick V, the most benevolent king of the Danes, the Oldesloer parish was restored to me." (Translation according to Otto Hitzer: The Oldesloer Peter-Paul Church im Changing Times. 1985)
In the world wars, all bells except the F-bell were used for weapon production. Today's three other bells were cast at the Rincker bell foundry in Sinn / Dillkreis.
