The church of Ss. Fabian and Sebastian is the parish church of the district Osterwick the community Rosendahl in Coesfeld. With the parish of St. Mary's Church belongs to the peasantry Höven, a brick building , which was built after the Second World War. The community belongs to the Dean's Office Coesfeld. Since the merger, it has also been the parish church for St. Nikolaus (Holtwick) and St. Nikolaus (Darfeld) .

History and architecture

The parish was probably founded before 1022 and mentioned in a document in 1188.

The building dominates the generous neo-Romanesque extension from 1904 to 1908 and 1922 made of Baumberger sandstone and a copper-covered roof. The architect of the building project from 1922 was Ludwig Becker.

The unified Romanesque predecessor building has been preserved except for the choir and is integrated into the new building. It is a comparatively low (vault height approx. 8 m) Staufer hall church in the bound system from the first half of the 13th century. The nave has two bays and the broken-off choir room had a square floor plan. The extension is located there today, consisting of an octagon, transept and side chapels. In the east the building closes with a copy of the original choir room. The old tower with stepped gable is flanked by two new towers and together with them functions as a westwork . Inside, in the central nave of the old building, domikal vaults can be found, with rounded vaulted ribs exclusively as decorative accessories without a load-bearing function. There are unadorned groin vaults in the side aisles .

In 1986, signed wall paintings from 1919 by the painter Wilhelm Sommer from Münster were uncovered in the choir and the side chapels. These were extensively supplemented, especially in the ornamental area.

Furnishing

View of the chancel

The furnishings are predominantly neo-Romanesque. In the choir room the paintings from 1922 can be seen again today, which were temporarily whitewashed in the wall area, as is the old high altar, which was initially removed in 1968/69. The side altars in the side chapels have been preserved, as have the stalls in the main nave, but the central aisle was removed in 1968. Only the neo-Romanesque pulpit and communion bench in the same style are no longer in their places. Remnants of the communion bench are in front of the side altars. A simple, monolithic block on a narrow base made of Anröchter dolomite serves as the celebration altar .

  • The chandelier (Flemish Crown) is marked 1620. It comes from the former Premonstratensian Monastery of Varlar . The candlestick was donated by Provost Jodokus von Heesen and is provided with an ancestral sample.
  • The early Gothic crucifix from around 1280 also comes from Varlar.
  • The figures of the old pulpit (baroque, linden wood, 1721); Crucifix and the four evangelists . Those were "detoxified" around 1968 and are now subtly colored.
  • The baroque altarpiece shows the crucifixion of Christ and comes from the high altar from before the expansion.
  • The Gothic font is with reliefs u. a. of the parish cartridge decorated.
  • Characters:
  • a total of eight historical tombstones from the floor of the old church
  • Vault stone, from the demolished choir and now in the same place in the extension
  • modern stations of the cross made of bronze.

Bells

There are four bells in the north tower . The chime is special, as it is one of the first chimes after the Second World War (together with the three bells of the Great Way of the Cross Chapel in Coesfeld-Brink ) .
