history

The chapel with the patronage of St. Martin is mentioned for the first time in a list of benefices from 1534. The three-sided Gothic choir, which has been preserved to this day, indicates that it was built in the first half of the 15th century. In 1661 the chapel was destroyed by fire and rededicated in 1663. In 1856 a renovation followed and in 1884 the chapel got a new tower. A new organ followed in 1894. Until 1950 the chapel belonged to the Jakobikirche in Kirchrode . It has been independent since 1950.

From 1954 the chapel was expanded to become a church: According to plans by the architects Fritz Schäfer and Peter Hübotter from Hanover, it was expanded with an extension and a new tower from 1954 to 1955, and the inauguration took place on August 21, 1955. Between 1970 and 1977 a community hall, a kindergarten and a rectory were built. The expansion was completed in 2001 with the construction of the community hall.

inner space

The altar of the church was built in 1970 based on designs by HA Ahrens. Originally, sandstone was planned as the material, but for cost reasons, the altar was finally made of structural concrete with Anderter cement. The altar cross, the bronze door in front of the sacrament implements and the twelve Apostle candlesticks on the walls of the church were made by the Hanoverian sculptor Siegfried Zimmermann . The church windows in the choir from 1960 were made by Hans Matschinsk from Braunschweig . The organ from Orgelbau Hillebrand dates from 1995.
