History and architecture

Organ St. Peter and Paul (Großeneder)

The church was first mentioned in a document in 1231. In 1634 and 1777, Spolia was walled into a previous Baroque church . Between 1814 and 1816, Hermann Eberhard built the simple hall church with a three-sided choir above the previous Baroque church . As building material, blocks from the Hardehausen monastery church were used . It stands in the southern flight of a medieval west tower. The lower part of the silted tower was built from broken stone right in the shape of a hammer with corner blocks. On the upper floor there are acoustic windows with glare tracery . A groin vault was drawn into the tower hall . The low round arch in the west wall of the nave is adorned with decorative paintings from the 17th century. The room version from around 1940 was restored in 1991. The choir windows were installed in 1906.

Remnants of walls with loopholes are still preserved from the formerly fortified churchyard .
