description

The year 1032 is given as the year of foundation of the stone church , which is Romanesque in its core . It is an aisle church with a sturdy square west tower. Gothic forms dominate the structure of the choir . In 1954, in the course of renovation work on the choir vault, late Gothic paintings were discovered - probably from the 15th century. The baroque altar and pulpit , a baptismal font from 1660 and a large gallery (1710) with scenes from the Old and New Testaments are also part of the church's furnishings.

organ

The core of the organ goes back to a single-manual instrument by Johann Hinrich Rohdenburg from 1863, which had eight stops . Johann Martin Schmid added a second manual with three registers. In 1966, the Verden organ builder Hans Wolf carried out a major expansion, and for reasons of quality only a few of his instruments have survived. The Alfred Führer company restored the organ in 1999. The plan is:

I main work C – f 3
1. Principal 8th'
2. Reed flute 8th'
3. Octave 4 ′
4th Gedacktpommer 4 ′
5. Nasard 2 2 ⁄ 3  ′
6th Forest flute 2 ′
7th Mixture IV
8th. Trumpet 8th'
II breastwork C – f 3
9. Dumped 8th'
10. Pointed flute 4 ′
11. Principal 2 ′
12. Terzian II
13. Zimbel II
Pedal C – d 1
14th Sub-bass 16 ′
15th Dumped 8th'
16. Choir flute 4 ′
