St. Johannis (Angelhausen)
The Evangelical Lutheran Church of St. Johannis is located at the Vorwerk 1 of Angelhausen , a district of the city of Arnstadt in the Ilm district in Thuringia .
A church with a choir tower dates from around 1200. In the first half of the 18th century the apse was demolished , the choir was redesigned and the galleries were built . From 1857 to 1860 the nave was extended to the west and covered with a mansard roof. Three rectangular windows each were inserted on the south and north sides of the nave and the portal on the north wall was bricked up. The church has been repaired since 1994 . A rectangular floor plan was subsequently added to the east tower in a boarded-up beam construction and crowned with a pyramid roof. The Romanesque sound arcades are on the north and east sides, remnants of them also on the south side. The ground floor in the tower has a flat-roofed choir, opened to the nave through a triumphal arch . In 1936 the eastern part of the choir was separated by a wooden wall to use it for blessings , and it also served as a winter church . Two-storey galleries were built into the south and north sides of the nave, while the organ prospect is located on the single-storey west gallery . The organ with 14 registers , divided into 2 manuals and pedal , was built in 1915 by Adam Eifert .
The furnishing was essentially done after 1860. The central part of an altar retable of a winged altar from the late 15th century has been preserved, containing a portrait of the Virgin , flanked on the left by Saint Barbara and a saint without an attribute, on the right by Saints Peter , Johannes and James .
