St. Joseph Church in 2008
Easter Vigil Celebration (2012)

Until 2013 Sankt Josef was a Roman Catholic parish and parish church in the Essen district of Kupferdreh ; In 2015 it was demolished. It stood on a hill on Schwermannstrasse and was dedicated to St. Joseph of Nazareth . The church was built from 1902 to 1904, because of the strong population growth in the previous century, a separate Catholic community was to be founded in Kupferdreh. The builder Heinrich Wassermann was in charge of the construction . The congregation, which became independent in 1909, existed until it was merged with several neighboring congregations in 2008. The Church of St. Joseph was redesigned after the Second World War (1951) and significantly expanded in 1957/1958. In 1969 the extension building was renewed.

In 1976 a community home was built. After the church community was dissolved in 2008, there was a considerable need for renovation work on the church, which is why it was profaned in 2013 and demolished in 2015. Since then, the property has been owned by the St. Josef Hospital , for which an extension building is to be built on the site. The church building was built in the neo-Gothic style and consisted of red brick masonry. During the expansion in 1957/1958, the previous main nave was supplemented by a transept, so that the church was given a cross-shaped floor plan. The new building was clad with clinker masonry. When it was built, a Marian chapel was added. There was no church tower . One of the special pieces of equipment of the church was a winged altar by the goldsmith Lioba Munz , in addition to the main altar, which was twice replaced by a new one .

history

prehistory

Today's Essen district of Kupferdreh is not a historically grown community, but is made up of the former towns of Hinsbeck , Rodberg and Dilldorf . Hinsbeck and Rodberg belonged to the Reichsabbey of Werden until they were dissolved in 1802 . In 1800 the two villages obtained permission from the Werden abbot to build a chapel in Hinsbeck, which was completed in 1801. Until the beginning of the 19th century, Dilldorf belonged to the Hardenberg domain , but the Catholic residents traditionally visited the abbey church of St. Ludgerus in Werden and from 1801 the chapel in Hinsbeck. During the church reorganization of the region in 1821, the border between the Archdiocese of Cologne and the Diocese of Paderborn was drawn right through the center of Hinsbeck, so that the church there belonged to a different diocese than most of the rest of the town. As a result, the chapel was soon viewed as part of the neighboring Dilldorf, as it belonged to the same diocese.

In 1875 Hinsbeck and Rodberg merged to form the new political municipality of Kupferdreh. In the following two years the "Dilldorfer" (politically still located in Hinsbeck or Kupferdreh) chapel was replaced by a parish church, actually located in Dilldorf, St. Mary's Birth . For the Hinsbeck Catholics the problem arose that they had a nearby church in Dilldorf, but under canon law they belonged to the parish in Niederwenigern and thus to a different diocese. However, there was also opposition to "re-parsing" Hinsbeck and the merger with Dilldorf. Therefore, the building of its own church in Kupferdreh was demanded, with the strong population increase due to industrialization being argued.

In 1893 the Episcopal Vicariate General in Paderborn, to which Kupferdreh belonged, decided to build a branch church in Niederwenigern there. Two years later, Dilldorf was politically incorporated into Kupferdreh, but kept its own parish. A vicar from the Niederwenigern rectory was therefore appointed in Hinsbeck in 1898 , who was temporarily allowed to use the church and cemetery in Dilldorf. In 1899, the Paderborn General Vicariate called the negotiations on a church merger of Kupferdreh and Dilldorf canceled. Just as little was the construction of a branch church in Niederwenigern, because it became clear that the Kupferdreher parish should become completely independent.

The parish of St. Josef Kupferdreh is established and the church is built

Since the emerging church Kupferdreh needed a church building, was founded on 14 May 1900, a church building association . The Feldmannskotten lying on an elevation in the center of Kupferdreh was selected as the building site. The Kirchbauverein acquired the property on June 26, 1901, whereby the previous owner gave her half an acre of land free of charge and significantly reduced the purchase price for the remaining one and a half acres.

The parish received episcopal approval to build the church in March 1901, and approval from the authorities in September of the same year. As early as July 1901, construction workers began to level the construction site. In March 1902, the choice of falling church patronage of the holy Joseph of Nazareth . The foundation stone was laid on April 13, 1902 .

Already on the afternoon of October 26, 1902 the church was benediziert . In the summer of 1903 a workshop in Düsseldorf delivered the choir windows. On May 6, 1904, the Bishop of Paderborn , Wilhelm Schneider, consecrated the finished church building. At the same time as the church, the rectory was built near the main entrance. On the first floor of the house there was a stone statue of Joseph, which was removed in the course of a renovation and later replaced by a new figure in the same place. This figure stood there until it was demolished in 2015. After extensive restoration, it was placed in front of the renovated community center in December 2015. After years of negotiations, Niederwenigern was removed from the parish in 1909 . In the same year the parish of St. Josef became independent.

Development up to profanation (1904–2012)

In 1913 it was decided to replace the gas lighting in the church with electric light. At the beginning of December 1921, the church council wanted to buy the nine- acre area behind the church with the house and barn for over 100,000 marks. This did not happen, however, because a short time later the farm became the property of the Essen coal mines. In 1923 the community installed plaques under the organ loft to commemorate the soldiers from copper turning who died in the First World War . The Weber and Eberling company , which was based in Essen-Steele at the time , submitted the draft for a roll of honor on July 19, 1922 and implemented it immediately because of the rising inflation . The panels are now in the archive of the citizenship of Kupferdreh.

The political municipality of Kupferdreh was incorporated into the city of Essen on August 1, 1929, and Essen belonged to the Archdiocese of Cologne. In 1930, the episcopal responsibility for the church and parish of St. Josef changed from the Archdiocese of Paderborn to the Archdiocese of Cologne, when the Diocese of Paderborn through the Prussian Concordat and the Bull Pastoralis officii nostri by Pope Pius XI. raised to the archbishopric and its territory was rewritten. As early as 1931 there were first considerations to expand the St. Josef church, but this could not be realized at that time. In honor of the first pastor of St. Josef, Friedrich Schwermann, who died in office in 1930, the Kirchstrasse adjacent to the church was renamed Schwermannstrasse on June 5, 1934. At the end of the 1930s, new doors were added instead of the vestibules. The windows were partially damaged in the Second World War, but overall the Church of St. Joseph suffered only minor damage from artillery shots or bombs.

After the Second World War, it became apparent that the St. Josef Church needed a youth home . The youth of the parish found other locations unsuitable. The construction management had two copper turner chaplains . Originally the youth home was supposed to cost 35,000 DM, but could be built with only 16,000 DM through donations of material and the support of many community members. The inauguration was on July 15, 1950. The house was demolished in the mid-2010s.

On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the parish church, the foundation stone from 1902 was opened on September 2, 1951 during an afternoon service and then walled up again with a second document. With the decision to raise the choir a few steps higher, the foundation stone, which was set in the wall behind the altar near the floor, would have been built over. When the choir was rebuilt, the colored central window was moved to the rear wall of the church, the choir windows were bricked up and the side windows were given a new design with small-scale lead glazing .

As it became increasingly clear that the church was too small for local needs, the authorities in charge considered demolishing it and replacing it with a new building. This happened in many places at that time; Ultimately, however, the church council in Kupferdreh decided in 1957 to convert and expand the existing building. The project cost 400,000 DM; the plans for the extension were made by the architect Emil Jung . The archiepiscopal authority in Cologne issued the building permit on August 12, 1957. As a result of the renovation, the church received a new, wide transept and an adjoining new choir . The topping-out ceremony for the extension was on January 16, 1958, and the community laid the foundation stone on October 1, 1958.

The original plan for the expansion was to build a free-standing church tower . In addition to the main entrance, an area of ​​6 × 6 meters was originally intended for this. The old belfry, however, should give way. However, the copper lathe operators did not implement these considerations. Why the construction was not carried out is unknown. The belfry was later retained with a new bell.

In 1965, the interior was redesigned with a wooden folding ceiling made from North American pine , designed by the Dortmund architects Hans-Ulrich Gastreich and Mechthild Gastreich-Moritz. The old ribbed vault had become ailing over the decades. The rear wall of the choir room, which was only built in 1958, had to be renovated in 1969; a sandstone wall was erected on a 1.80 meter deep foundation in front of the old wall. In order to adapt the sanctuary to the new liturgical requirements after the Second Vatican Council , the old altar steps were removed and the altar moved forward three to four meters. At the same time, new glass blocks were inserted into the windows of the new building. The cost of this construction work amounted to 108,000 DM. In 1976 the parish of St. Josef got a community home, which was inaugurated on July 3rd. A complete interior renovation of the church, in which the interior was painted light, was carried out by the Essen architect Rolf Grundmann in the early 1980s. Repair work was carried out in the following years .

A new organ was purchased in 1995 and the heating system was replaced two years later.

Profanation and demolition

On the day of the profanation, parishioners set up grave lights in front of the church

In 2006 the Bishop of Essen, Felix Genn , decided to dissolve the six parishes of St. Joseph, St. Mary's Birth, St. Barbara , St. Mary's Visitation , St. George and the Heart of Jesus on March 31, 2008 and become the parish of St. Josef Essen Ruhr Peninsula to merge. In this context, the continued existence of the parish church of St. Josef was considered certain until a few years later a massive need for renovation became apparent. This ensured that an extensive restoration of the church was discussed in the early 2010s. The total costs for this would have been around 833,000 euros, according to the report by an engineering office in Dormagen . Of this, around 462,000 euros would have gone to the parish church itself, 50,000 to the construction of the bell chair and around 89,000 euros to the quarry stone retaining wall. All in all, the renovation work on Kirchberg St. Josef would have cost well over a million euros due to additional repair costs. In view of the “unsustainable economic” situation, the responsible bodies decided in 2012 to close St. Joseph as soon as possible and to give it up as a “place of worship”. On October 4, 2012, the church council decided to apply for profanation . The bishop signed the decree of profanation on March 11, 2013. The decision to demolish the church was met with incomprehension among many parishioners, especially because a new organ was only purchased in 1995. Doubts about the calculations of the amount of the necessary renovation costs left the diocese and church council, which had not belonged to a copper lathe operator since 2009 (a consequence of the amalgamation of the parishes in 2008), ignored.

Plans to expand the hospital in the immediate vicinity favored the decision to demolish it. In a week of prayer immediately before the profanation, the believers were able to say goodbye to their house of God in three special devotions during the day and on weekdays. On the evening of November 23, 2013, the pontifical mass for the profanation of the parish church of St. Josef, headed by Ruhr Bishop Franz-Josef Overbeck , took place. The church was then closed. Since then, the Herz-Jesu-Kirche in Burgaltendorf has been the new main church of the parish of St. Josef. The church property was sold to the Catholic Clinics Ruhr Peninsula on September 30, 2014 at a price of 925,000 euros . The hospital opposite is to be expanded on the site. At the beginning of 2015, the clinics applied to the city ​​of Essen for a corresponding demolition permit. After approval, the church was demolished in December 2015. The demolition work began on the west side and ended after about two weeks on the attached transept. The only exception that was excluded from demolition was the community center built in 1976, which was extensively renovated and re-inaugurated on December 6, 2015. It serves as a meeting place for the Catholic community of Kupferdreh. The renovation was financed through the sale of the church property.

architecture

Original building

Roof turret shortly before demolition; the bell has already been removed

The east- facing three-aisled staggered church was located in the center east of the Ruhr and north of the Kupferdreher Hospital between Schwermannstrasse and Heidbergweg. The church was built in the neo-Gothic style from red brick masonry and originally ended with a three-sided apse in the east. The slightly lower roofs of the aisles ended under the eaves of the central nave, so that the three ships could also be seen from the outside. A dainty roof turret with an octagonal pointed helmet was attached to the central nave , supported by eight narrow columns and crowned by a simple cross. A small steel bell hung in the roof turret . Before and after the renovation, another cross stood on the west gable for a while.

Most of the corners or walls in the church (especially in the choir room) were made of quarry stone until the beginning of the post-war period . The half-dome of the choir apse on the north side was designed with Christian symbols before the major renovation, in the middle a large stylized Christ monogram (XP) with a crown as a symbol for "Christ the King". The church was illuminated by pointed-arched tracery windows with nuns' heads and three passes in the arched field. Five two-lane windows were let into the long sides. A triple window with a raised two-lane window flanked by two narrow windows shaped the west side of the central nave. The narrow west windows in the side aisles were the same height as the windows on the long sides. In the gable triangle, a small round window also had a three-pass. On the middle window of the choir the homage to Jesus and the Jonas story were depicted, on the left window the churchgoers saw St. Joseph surrounded by his family , and the right window showed the death of St. Joseph . The three windows were bricked up when the church was redesigned in 1951. The middle window was built into the rear wall of the church, while the whereabouts of the other two are not known. Stepped buttresses divided the outer walls and ended on the long sides below a frieze that continued on the west side of the side aisles, but not in the central nave.

Extension 1958

For the extension, the previous choir was demolished and a transept with 200 seats measuring 27 × 11 meters was built in its place. A new choir was attached to this, so that the church as a whole was given a cruciform shape. The newly created extension was clad with red brickwork on the outside and bright, large-scale structured clinker brickwork on the inside . The transept gables were dissolved in a concrete-glass honeycomb grid with individual color accents. Initially, the triangular openings in the 50 cm thick reinforced concrete walls of the transept gable were provided with raw mirrored glass. The large triangles had a side length of 80 cm. This created a glass area of ​​70 m² on each side of the gable and then each of the large openings was filled with four triangular glass blocks, each 40 cm in length. The small openings were given colored building blocks that glowed red on the left in the transept and blue and yellow on the right. On the right half of the transept two colored window pictures and one on the left side were placed on the glass blocks. The three colored glass blocks together represented the Trinity . The east gable was windowless and unadorned. The transept-like extension had higher outer walls than the central nave, but ended with the central nave at the same ridge height .

On the north side a staircase with five steps led to two successive glass doors through which the visitors entered the church. The side aisles opened up for expansion, which is why the two side altars were omitted. The old main entrance in the middle of the west side of the church was omitted and was replaced by two entrances of equal rank, which received a vestibule with a flat roof supported by four columns over the entire width of the west side. From the vestibule, visitors came through two north and south facing portals into vestibules with windows and from there through transparent doors into the interior of the church. To the left behind the northern entrance there was another small room inside the church, which was lit by a window facing northwest. On the north side, the confessionals were also housed in newly built niches . The low sacristy with a flat roof was built on the south side . The old sacristy and the entrance on the south side had to be demolished because of the construction of the new transept. In addition, a Marienkapelle was built in 1958 to replace the Marien Altar.

The steep pointed ceiling of the central nave was clad with wood from 1965, the side aisles were vaulted with a wooden fold ceiling, which ended in a pointed arched choir arch in front of the extension . A flat coffered ceiling in the chancel reached the top of the old central nave. Ogre arched arcades (they were yellow on the left and right edge) on each of five mighty pink round columns opened the aisles to the central nave. The pillars made of cast iron concrete had eight-sided profiled capitals that were painted in blue, yellow and red. Below the capitals there were blue, wave-shaped corners. Below that, a golden ring circled the pillars. On the large round pillars were significantly smaller pillars (also in pink) that protruded to the wooden folding ceiling. Until the spring of 1994 two other small pillars supported the organ stage.

The baptistery room , created in 1982, was located behind the south entrance on the west side in the right aisle. Four built-in windows in the baptistery showed the archangels Gabriel , Michael , Raphael and Uriel . Outside the church, the windows had a square grid. One year after the profanation (2014) these windows were removed and were placed in the chapel of the Catholic cemetery in Kupferdreh. In the chancel on the rear brick wall in the middle was the golden tabernacle, to the left and right of it were the seats for the altar boys . The main altar stood in front of the tabernacle. On the left side of the main room of the church was the ambo , where the lecturers held their readings and the priest or deacon preached the gospel .

The roof of the parish church of St. Josef was made of wood and the floor was tiled in light brown.

Lady Chapel

During the renovation work in 1957/58 a Marienkapelle was built . It is no longer known exactly where it was in the church building. It had an altar so that Holy Mass could also be celebrated here. The first altar with two columns was made of stone, when the church was rebuilt it was replaced by a wooden altar. The small golden tabernacle with the relief-like depiction of ears of wheat (right) and grapes (left) for bread and wine, symbols for the body and blood of Christ , was a gift from the mothers' and women's association's playgroup . In the chapel there was also a representation of the Mother of God of Perpetual Help ; it was an icon that the artist Karl Zangerle rephrased on a bronze plate and framed it with stylized tulips.

The Lady Chapel was abandoned for unknown reasons towards the end of the 20th century.

Furnishing

Altars

In 1904, the church received a high altar with an approximately 8 meter high neo-Gothic structure from the Diedrichs & Knoche altar building workshop in Wiedenbrück . On the epistle and the gospel side , half-length portraits of the four church fathers Gregory the Great , Hieronymus , Augustine and Ambrosius were to be seen in two rectangles , in front of which there were flower benches. In the middle of the structure, next to the expositorium for the exposure of the monstrance , there was a relief of the birth of Christ on the left and one with the descent of the Holy Spirit on the right . A half-sculpture of the Trinity used to be placed directly above the expositorium . Above it rose the altar cross, next to which stood the approximately half a meter high wooden figures of Our Lady and Saint John . On both sides of the altar stood the apostles Peter and Paul on small pedestals . The figures of the apostles are today in the chapel of the St. Josef Senior Center Kupferdreh. In 1938 the structure of the high altar was removed because the image of the central choir window should be visible. The trinity relief from the structure of the high altar stood on a base in the baptistery until the end. In the following years there was a Sacred Heart statue to the left of the high altar and a statue of Mary to the right . Nothing is known about the whereabouts of the Sacred Heart statue. The figure of the Virgin was kept in the basement of the sacristy from 1951 to 1982, then restored and placed on the St. Mary's altar (not to be confused with the other St. Mary's altar; see following section) in the left nave (previously in the St. Mary's Chapel) . After the church was demolished, it ended up in the convent of the Carmelite Sisters at the Kupferdreher Hospital.

Some wealthy private individuals donated two side altars, the Marienaltar (left side altar) and the Joseph Altar (right side altar). The parish procured the figures for these altars. The statue of Mary Immaculate Conception , a crescent moon Madonna with a halo and a crescent moon and the snake as a symbol of evil, stood in the middle of the Marien altar, whose head Mary trampled on. On the left was St. Barbara , patron saint of miners, on the right St. Elisabeth , the patroness of Christian charity. On the Joseph altar stood in the middle the statue of the church patron, St. Joseph , to the left of it St. Isidore of Madrid , the patron saint of the peasants. With this saint, the congregation wanted to express its close ties to the country and the farmers. On the far right was the statue of St. Anthony of Padua . Both side altars were not far from the main altar and were removed in the course of the expansion of the church in 1958, and the statues were moved to the front wall of the chancel. The figure Josef went to the profanation of the church in the village of Dill and the other four saints came to the convent of the Carmelites in Siegburg that these rooms in the former 2013 Benedictine opened.

During the reconstruction of the presbytery in 1951, the Church of St. Joseph received her second of travertine - marble created altar of a sculptor was. The old main altar had to give way. The altar consisted of an altar plate and three columns. During the expansion in 1958, this altar also had to make way for a new main altar, which the Essen auxiliary bishop Julius Angerhausen consecrated on May 31, 1959. The altar consisted of two pieces of marble weighing 100 hundred pounds. The Wallenfels marble came from Köstenberg in Upper Franconia . Relics of the holy apostle Matthias and the holy martyr Theodora were set in the altar . The altar was made by the West German Marble Works in Dortmund and cost 7,500 DM.

Other pieces of equipment

Former baptismal font of St. Joseph; behind the trinity relief, on the right the window with the archangels

A year before the high altar was purchased, the congregation commissioned a pulpit ; it hung on a round column in the central nave and had four half-length portraits of the four evangelists . According to the chronicler Franz Stauf, these pictures were considered “coarse and robust” . A renovation shortly before the Second World War changed its appearance. Since then, the previously colored reliefs and sculptures have been painted over in wood color or gilded . The pulpit was removed during the renovation in 1957. After that there was no more in the church. After the completion, the church gradually received pews. In 1906 the benches for the central nave were available. The mahogany pews had carved front and side panels that were retained years later after the restoration and replacement of the seat parts. Later some children's benches and the benches for the side aisles followed. The art carpenter Victor Böll made a communion bench for the church in the 1900s . Fifty years later, the congregation had them removed from the church as part of major renovations. It was replaced by a new bank, which, however, was not in the church until it was profaned. On March 4, 1906, the first Way of the Cross was inaugurated as part of a fasting devotion . During the Second World War this was replaced by new stations of the cross, designed by the former archaeologist Wilhelm Winkelmann . The plaques hung inside the church on the walls near the three entrances and are now in the fund of the parish of St. Josef in Essen-Kupferdreh. The baptismal font made of gray and white sandstone , which was acquired in 1908, supported black mini round columns. After the renovation in 1958, it stood in front of the old entrance on the back wall of the church, and later it was placed in the baptistery, which was set up in 1982. A church in Poland received the lid of the baptismal font. In 1912, the local Lourdes Association donated a replica of the statue of Mary in the Lourdes grotto . After the figure was blessed in a celebration with a candlelight procession , prayer and a feast of preaching , she stood on the epistle side of the church. Her later whereabouts are unknown.

The first altar cross was replaced by a large brown cross that was hung over the altar during the renovation phase . The body was created by the Osnabrück artist Gerhard Phillipp. In 1951 a new gold-colored tabernacle was added. On the front, three intertwined rings symbolized the Holy Trinity at the lower left . The lamb of God holding a cross was depicted at the bottom right as a symbol for Jesus and the dove as a symbol of the Holy Spirit in the upper left part . From the top right the hand of God the Father pointed to the fourth of the cross. Seven precious stones were attached to the top of the tabernacle. Both the cross and the tabernacle were moved to a newly built Polish church after the parish church of St. Joseph was closed. On November 16, 1954, a statue of the Virgin Mary made of plaster , the so-called “Virgin of the Poor”, came to the Church of St. Joseph. It was a gift from the then Bishop of Liège , Louis-Joseph Kerkhof . Banneux prayers were then held weekly in St. Joseph for a number of years . This statue of the Virgin Mary no longer exists, it appears to have been destroyed. In addition, the Benedictine Lioba Munz created a modern winged altar , a triptych with a representation of the Lamentation of Christ in the central part. The left wing shows St. Elisabeth , the right wing St. Gertrude . For the altar, Munz used twelve Brazilian precious stones and enamel in the sink-melt technique. The work of art hung in a showcase in the left nave and is now in the hospital chapel in Kupferdreh. On May 1st, 2014, the altar and 18 benches were removed from the secular church. They also came to Poland, to the newly built St. John Paul II Church in the parish of St. Catherine in Kośmidry . The Pietà in the covered entrance area was destroyed during the demolition of the church.

Organs

Harmonium and first Feith organ from 1920

Initially there was only a harmonium in St. Josef to accompany the song. It came from the Catholic journeyman's house in Essen and was purchased for 600 marks.

In the fall of 1920, 1919 and planned by the company was Eggert organ-building institution built organ installed. The total cost was 40,000 marks. The inauguration took place as part of a church concert. An electrical line had to be laid for the organ. An intended bellows was thus omitted. The extension of the attached organ stage on both sides created more space for the church visitors. In 1949, 1959 and 1968 the organ had to be repaired or rebuilt because it was in poor condition. However, the deficiencies could not be remedied in the long run.

Second Feith organ from 1969

Second Feith organ from 1969; in the church until 1994, dismantled in the same year and replaced one year later by a new organ without an organ stage
The worn out Feith organ

In 1969, a used organ from the Gaukirche in Paderborn was bought from the organ builder Anton Feith , the director of the Eggert organ building institute. When this instrument was rebuilt for its new purpose, parts of the old organ that were still functioning could be used. The Feith organ, consecrated on December 14, 1969, had 24  registers , two manuals and a pedal and cost 45,000 DM.

In October 1987 an organ expert from the diocese of Essen stated in an expert report that considerable signs of wear and tear had occurred, which made precise playing impossible. Since this determination, the church council at that time has dealt with the topic and had new reports drawn up. After some time it became clear that a general overhaul of the organ was not worthwhile, because the result would have been in no reasonable relation to the foreseeable costs. Furthermore, the signs of wear would have reappeared. The organ builder Hubert Sandtner advised the Kupferdreher community to hand over the organ to the Joseph parish in Lublin. The instrument was then dismantled in April 1994 and transferred to Lublin , where it was consecrated again in a church on June 15, 1997 after the organ front had been repaired and redesigned and painted by an artist.

Sandtner organ from 1994

Sandtner organ

As a replacement for the old instrument, an organ was bought by Orgelbau Sandtner on March 5, 1992 , which cost 1,115,000 DM and was financed by donations. The instrument was built in 1994 and consecrated on March 19, 1995. The organ stage had to be removed and replaced with a new platform made by a local company. The Sandtner organ took up the entire western part of the church.

The instrument had 31 sounding registers on two manuals and a pedal . The game actions and stop actions are mechanical.

The last organist in the St. Josef Church was Friedhelm Schüngel.

In view of the profanation of the church, it was planned to accommodate the organ in the Dilldorf church . But because this would have required considerable renovation work, she should come to another parish in the diocese of Essen. Despite a nationwide tender at the end of 2013, no buyer was initially found. In January 2014 the Catholic parish church of St. Konrad in Amberg, Bavaria, acquired the nine-ton instrument. One month later the dismantling of the Sandtner organ began and in March 2014 the organ building company transported it away. The organ was consecrated on July 13, 2014 in Bavaria.

Chest organ

In addition to the Sandtner organ , the St. Josef Church had had a chest organ since 1994 , which also came from the organ building company Sandtner. The register and performance actions are mechanical. The instrument has four registers on a manual (C – f 3 : Copel 8 ′, reed flute 4 ′, doublet 2 ′, fifth 1 1 ⁄ 3  ′). The pitch is a ′ = 440 Hz. Since the demolition of St. Josef, the instrument has been used alternately in the other six churches of the parish of St. Josef, Essen Ruhr Peninsula.

Bells

Roof turret bell until 2014

As early as 1903, a bell was procured for the roof turret, in which it hung until November 2014. The bell was not damaged by the air raids of the two world wars.

Since July 12, 2016, she has been in the Catholic cemetery in Kupferdreh and rings the bell for burials .

Bells from 1949 to 1960

The church was given a full ring for the first time in 1949. The four bells had been commissioned from the bell foundry in Gescher for the Archdiocese of Central Chile in 1939, shortly before the Second World War, and were completed in 1940, but no longer delivered. The community in Gescher had used these bells for six years from 1943 because they had to hand over their old ones for war purposes. They remained undamaged during World War II. Because the former secretary of the bishop of the commissioning diocese was now a chaplain in Kupferdreh, this bell came on loan to Kupferdreh in the spring of 1949, where it was hung in a belfry made of steel profiles in front of the church. The first festive chime took place at the resurrection celebration of the parish of St. Josef on Holy Saturday , April 16, 1949. The bell stayed in the parish until 1960. On March 27, 1960, the Bishop of Linares demanded the bells for his diocese. That is why they were brought to Hamburg on September 4, 1960 and shipped to Chile . At the same time, the community planned to buy new bells, which was realized a year later.

The motif was Salve Regina .

Bells from 1961 to 2014

Bell chair in September 2013

The architecture of the belfry had to be changed for the new or larger bells. In 1961 six new bells were purchased; They were cast on July 7, 1961 by the bell foundry "Petit & Gebr. Edelbrock" in Gescher , which also supplied the bells from 1940. The caster was Hans Georg Hermann Maria Hüesker. The Anna-Glocke donated the playgroup of the women's club. One month after production, on August 13, 1961, they were placed in the belfry and on the evening of August 19 the first solemn chime sounded. The ringing of the angelus at 7:00 a.m., 12:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. initially alternated with the Ludgerus, Anna and roof rider bells . In the course of time, the Ludgerus bell became severely damaged, so that the Anna bell was rung instead. It was also no longer allowed to be used after a certain time and the roof bell had to be used. Except for the Ludgerus bell, all bells had the same decay process. The angelus bell was “smooth” at the end and the others “stood”.

The bells had " medium-weight ribs ". Music director Jakob Schaeben (1905–1980) made a sound assessment of the peal. He judged the beat tone tuning line to have been hit exactly at the predefined level and the individual sounds in the area of ​​the principal tones as being so well ordered that the tolerance ranges specified in the evaluation guidelines did not have to be used. The mixtures, free of loud disturbing tones, were said to have been rich and structured with a beautiful uniformity.

In 2012, dangerous rust occurred at the belfry, whereupon the bells for no longer existing security decommissioned was. Finally, only the roof bell rang at the fair. The belfry was no longer repaired because the demolition of the church was already under discussion when the damage was noticed.

Four ringing bells after the profanation, two were shut down

Minutes before the profanation were the three lower bell gebeiert . It was not until after the service that the bell was operated electrically for the last time, despite the noticeable rust damage.

After the dismantling on November 11, 2014, the bells in Gescher were temporarily stored for use in other churches. Those responsible had the metal belonging to the belfry recycled .

In January 2020, the six bells were advertised for sale.

Te Deum laudamus was the motive for this ringing.
