history

South side of the city church, 2007

In 1222, Brüel was first mentioned when Prince Heinrich Borwin I founded the Antoniter Preceptory in nearby Tempzin . The cleric Theodoric Theodericus sacerdos in Bruil from Brüel was also named among the witnesses . There is no evidence of an early church building in Brüel. After princes Albrecht and Johann handed over various rights in the parishes of Brüel, Penzin and Sülten to von Bülow in 1344 , it is assumed that the rulers, as patrons of the Church of Brüel, were also its founders. On January 5, 1266, the church at Brüel took part in the well-known large bread and wine donation donated by the pious Prince Heinrich the Pilgrim . Around this time, the canon Ulrich from the Schwerin cathedral chapter also received income from the Brüeler parish, which he renounced after joining the Franciscan order in 1271.

The town, which was built next to a castle, was not granted town charter by Reimer von Plessen until 1340 , and it remained in the possession of the feudal town lords until the 18th century. In the Middle Ages, Brüel belonged to the Schwerin diocese . With the exception of brief pledging periods to the Antonites in Tempzin and those of Levetzow , von Plessen remained in the possession of Brüel for over two hundred and fifty years and made various services to the church. The church in Brüel still preserves a life-size picture of Heinrich von Plessen with his wife painted on the north wall. The rule of von Plessen ends in 1611 with the sale of the feudal estates Brüel and Bibow to Detlev von Warnstädt. His wife Anna Maria, née von Pederstorf, donated the pulpit in the church of Brul as a benefactor in 1624. As early as 1665 Gottlieb von Hagen became the legal successor and from 1680 Georg Christoph von Kohlhans also held the church patronage. He is also known as the founder of the Brul poorhouse. on January 7, 1702, Christian Schlottmann von Freiburg took over the property at Brüel with the patronage.

In 1455, Hinrik Putlist and 1479 Hinrich Mögekop were named by the Briel clergy in the Middle Ages.

Building history

West pediment, 2007

The church is on the southern edge of the elongated street market. Its current structure was built in the third quarter of the 13th century and was completed in several stages by the beginning of the 15th century. The somewhat compact single-nave town church with the two-bay nave is a brick church on a field stone base without a steeple in the transition style from Romanesque to Gothic . The construction time of the nave is documented around 1373.

The outer

A square choir , which was renewed in 1421, is joined by the single-nave, two-bay nave built from the same material. The choir gable was decorated in a particularly elaborate way with panels and a recessed cross.

The reveal of the slender, pointed-arched windows and the southern choir portal are adorned with alternating glazed and unglazed bricks. In place of the tower, around 1415 an extension was built on the west gable with screens and small screen crosses. The roofs were designed as a gable roof . The stepped gable end of the choir and tower facade is an addition during the renovations from 1860 to 1868.

The inner

The interior of the church with its hunted proportions is vaulted with ribs . The choir and nave are separated by a pressed, pointed triumphal arch. During the last restoration in 1967, vault paintings were uncovered and the furnishings are now particularly effective again. On the north wall of the nave next to the pulpit is a life-size mural of Heinrich von Plessen and his wife Abel von Lützow from the 16th century. Von Plessen holding a lance in her hand, his wife a rosary, not a pearl ribbon, deserves special attention as a cultural and historical monument. The larger than life carved crucifix of the former triumphal cross group, created around 1550, dates from medieval times .

altar

The wooden baroque altarpiece with a large crucifix between the pillars dates from 1753 . The figures on the side represent Moses with the tablets of the law on the left and John the Baptist on the right , crowned by the triumphant Christ. The Lord's Supper is shown in the predella . The patron Schlottmann von Freiburg had the altar erected in 1753.

pulpit

The well-preserved Renaissance pulpit from 1624 with high-quality carving is remarkable . Hermen pilasters and figures of virtue on the basket, with the evangelists in between and Renaissance ornaments on the sound cover . Anna Marie von Petersdorff, maid of the Duchess Anna von Mecklenburg, married Captain Detlev von Warnstädt in 1610, who in 1611 bought the Brüel estate. As a great benefactor, Anna Maria donated a preacher's chair and bell bag to the church in Brüel in 1624, as well as the Renaissance pulpit in memory of her husband.

Grave slab, epitaph

Under the choir is the grave slab made of sandstone and with the coats of arms of Bogislav Ernst von Petersdorff and his second wife Anna Maria von Warnstädt from 1690. The burial place was created in 1686. Bogislav Ernst von Pederstorff was a ducal Mecklenburg district administrator, court judge and governor of Lübz and Crivitz .

The carved, framed small medallion pictures and painted epitaph by Levin Detlev von Petersdorff was donated by his parents as a memorial on June 15, 1688. At the age of 23 he died as a lieutenant in Francke's Duke Brunswick-Lüneburg-Cellic Regiment during the campaign against the Turks on October 15, 1685 in Moravia .

organ

Today one of the last organs of the organ builder Friedrich Wilhelm Winzer is located in the Brüeler Church . An older predecessor was mentioned in Plessen's foundation letter of February 2, 1502. The present organ (I / P / 7 + 5) was built in 1843. The instrument is in a white, classicist prospectus , which was presumably designed by the architect Tischbein from Warin. The slider chests -instrument was founded in 1993 by the organ builder Schuke restored. It has seven registers on one manual , and five transmissions from them to the pedal . The actions are mechanical.

Bells

Around 1900 there were three bells in the tower. The larger bell was cast by JV Schultz in Rostock in 1799. The second bell, probably from 1457, has an artistically formed majuscule inscription. The third bell, also with a majuscule inscription, still had a foundry mark.
