Saint Anne Church

The Sankt-Anna-Kirche in Twistringen , Am Kirchhof 7, in the district of Diepholz is a neo-Gothic , Catholic church that is a listed building.

Building

The parish church is a three-aisled hall church with an indicated transept as a brick building and was consecrated in 1870. The two side aisles are structured with buttresses . The gable roofs are gable. The choir is closed on three sides.

The mighty, retracted, 56 meter high, octagonal west tower with a pointed spire stands over the first central nave yoke . He is the symbol of the city. The three west entrances form a kind of portal system . The north transept was expanded with a newer extension.

Inside, pillars support the four yokes. The high altar (Seling) and the choir windows date from around 1900. The bell-shaped bronze baptismal font with the 13th century inscription was created around 1250. The mount of Olives is from the late Baroque period around 1700. Other pieces of equipment are the new tabernacle and the Apostles' candlesticks (Iserlohe, 1995).

Due to asbestos contamination, a church extension from the 1960s had to be dismantled.
