The St. Margarethen Church (Patzig)

The St. Margarethen Church in Patzig on the island of Rügen is a Gothic church building from the 15th century .

History and architecture

A church was built on the site of today's church in 1318, but nothing of the structure has been preserved. The church received the patronage of St. Margaret .

The three-bay, polygonal closed choir was built according to dendrochronological dating (d) 1410; the sacristy to the north, as well as the nave, with its west gable divided by blinds, followed in 1426 (d). Inside the nave is closed with cross vaults. The triumphal arch is approximately rounded; Pointed arch niches are embedded in the nave and choir walls. As in the Kasnevitz village church, the buttresses of the choir are drawn outside and inside the nave.

The church tower was built around 1500 with a high base made of field stone, three upper floors with panels and a steep hipped roof . The wall paintings with primitive ornamental decoration and drollery heads were created after an inscription in 1466.

Furnishing

The carved altar from the middle of the 15th century shows St. Margaret in the shrine, next to and in the wings two rows of apostles and saints with partly freely renewed attributes under flat tracery canopies . The outside of the wings are each painted with two painted scenes from the legend of Margaret. At the top there is a board with openwork tracery ornamentation , a dedication inscription, empty coat of arms medallions and a low crab comb. The predella from the middle of the 17th century shows a painted representation of the Last Supper between the coats of arms of those of Krassow and Buggenhagen . The altar screen dates from the 18th century.

Romanesque font

An altarpiece from 1889 depicting Christ as a healer (copy after C. Richter) in a neo-Gothic frame was made by R. Rassow in 1889. A wooden lectern from the 17th century in the form of a cupboard is painted with grotesques .

The located in the tower room baptismal font of granite was built around 1250; it is a relic of the previous building and probably the oldest baptismal font on Rügen.

The pulpit dates from the first half of the 17th century. The railing of the basket is architecturally structured, that of the stairway is structured by diamond fields. There are openwork fittings on the cover . The staircase was probably extended in the 18th century with parts of a clock case with the arms of Philip Gotslob von Rotermund and Anna von Normann from 1652. There is a picture of Luther on the door .

A grave slab embedded in the floor in front of the altar dates from 1339, from the previous building. It reminds of the clergyman Petrus de Paceke (Petrus von Patzig) who was active in the community. An epitaph from Passow († 1651) shows a framed inscription plaque with a triangular gable.
