St. Marien (Strasburg)
St. Marien in Strasburg in the Uckermark is a Protestant town church. It was built from 1250 to 1280 and later transformed into a high-Gothic hall church .
history
The foundation stone of St. Mary's Church in Strasburg was laid when the city was founded around 1250. The choir and the basement of the tower have been preserved from the early Gothic field stone building from 1250 to 1280 . The originally wide, flat-roofed choir with its three window groups in framed panels and the gable with panel decoration and pointed arch frieze was later vaulted with a wooden barrel vault.
From around 1450, the church was largely redesigned. The original nave was demolished and a late Gothic, three-aisled hall with four narrow Jochen built of bricks. The building is wider than it is long. The simple exterior is structured by the four high, Gothic windows with fine tracery and the buttresses .
The portals in the north and south have strong walls . The main portal shows a round arch.
In 1865 the church was completely restored. The choir gable was redesigned, the choir vaulted and the sacristy built in. Further restorations took place in 1935 and 1990.

Tower and bells
In 1602 the tower was demolished halfway up and rebuilt in 1617. In 1837 the bell chamber was renewed as a half-timbered tower and the pointed spire .
The four bells are from 1948, cast by Erich Voss from Hennickendorf.
Interior, fittings and organ
Inside, the star vault comes from the Gothic. The pillars are structured in a cross shape with 3/4 round services (templates). From the side walls, rectangular templates and circular services support the vault.
In 1845 the organ loft and the organ were installed.
The earlier baroque interior was removed in 1865 and replaced in the neo-Gothic style. Parts of the baroque furnishings are exhibited in the north aisle.
During the renovation in 1935, the furnishings from 1865 were also removed. The paintings on the wooden barrel in the choir and the paintings in the nave date from this time.
In 1990, the rose window in the east gable was opened and colored glass was used.

Parish
To Prussian time Strasburg was a Brandenburg superintendency . The Reformed legacy of the Huguenot settlers was evident for a long time. In 1974 the parish of Strasburg and some of the surrounding parishes were transferred from the Evangelical Church in Berlin-Brandenburg to the Pomeranian Evangelical Church .
The parish, Pfarrstraße 22, is now part of the Strasburg parish in the parish of Pasewalk in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Northern Germany , together with the district of Schwarzensee and the village parish of Wismar and Blumenhagen with the villages of Groß Luckow , Klein Luckow and Groß-Spiegelberg .
