The Stadtkirche Neubukow is a listed church building in Neubukow in the Rostock district ( Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania ). The Evangelical Lutheran parish of Neubukow and Westenbrugge belongs to the Wismar Propstei in the Mecklenburg parish of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Northern Germany .

History and architecture

The building is an early Gothic , three-aisled hall church made of brick with two bays . It was built around the same time as the city was founded in the second half of the 13th century with a two-bay, recessed rectangular choir . The choir is dendrochronologically dated to 1261, the nave to 1286. The west tower was not built until the middle of the 15th century, so it belongs to the late Gothic period .

This church is one of the twenty churches in the country of Ilow , which Heinrich the Pilgrim donated in 1226 with a foundation of bread and wine .

It was originally under the patronage of Saints Peter and Paul. The Neubukow pastor August Müller (1853 to 1898) in Neubukow writes in his observance book of the Neubuckow parish: According to a statement by the preposition Christoph Mussaeus , who was in office from 1779 to 1798, in the oldest church book on the title page this church bears the name Petri Pauli Church . This patronage has only been documented since 1736; it is not considered by historians to be the original, which is believed to be St. Mary and St. Nicholas . The west tower stands on a square floor plan, it was added in the 15th century. The walls of the choir, the ships and the 52 meter high tower stand on different high field stone plinths. The walls of the choir and the nave are emphasized by corner pilasters . The gable triangle of the choir gable is designed with a lying herringbone pattern made of alternating rows of glazed and unglazed bricks. The walls of the nave are divided by three-part pointed arch windows with a quarter-bar profile. The choir walls are divided by pairs of pointed arched windows with a sloping reveal . The east wall of the choir has a group of three lancet windows . The walls of the portal in the middle yoke and those of the former priest's gate are profiled differently. The reveals and the vicinity of the choir windows and the reveal of the south portal are each glazed alternately. The wall templates are gable-shaped. The walls of the tower are divided into two floors by the simple portal and above the windows. Above the four gables above, the tower closes with an eight-sided, clapboard-roofed helmet . It was entered on the nautical charts as a guide for seafarers. Glazed terracotta figures of Saints Mary and Nicholas stand in the north and west gables.

In the interior of the choir, rectangular cross-ribbed vaults rest over wall templates with round services. The ribbed vaults in the hall rest on cross pillars with closed round services. In the windows on the east side Christ, Moses and John the Evangelist are depicted. They were installed in 1858.

In the church files of the State Archives from 1666 a document with the following message is handed down: “... that the local church tower and roof have become dilapidated during such protracted chaos of war that, since the same damage is not soon built, the church and the tower are irrevocably ruined would". The roof structure of the nave was probably badly damaged during the Thirty Years War and was then flattened.

During a renovation in 1857/58, the side aisles and the tower hall, which is open to the central nave, were blocked by neo-Gothic wooden galleries . A church renovation for 1817 is documented by a rediscovered inscription above the choir. In 1999, the medieval ornaments in the shield gables of the tower were traced according to findings.

Relief panels on the tower

The two relief panels are glazed identically , they show the saints Maria and Nikolaus and were made in a distillery in Wismar . Presumably the church was also dedicated to these saints. Nicholas is the patron saint of seafarers and according to tradition, the church is said to have been a sea ​​mark in the past . The panels are inserted into the masonry. Such panels can also be found at the Georgenkirche and the Nikolaikirche in Wismar.

Most of the equipment has been renewed.

  • The neo-Gothic altarpiece, crowned with an eyelash and pinnacle, is decorated with paintings by Gaston Lenthe . They show the crucifixion of Christ and the apostles Peter and Paul.
  • The baptismal font of granite was created in the 13th century, it was originally in the church of Old Karin . The foot is adorned with four heads in relief, the cupa is decorated with round-arched blind arcades . The font was probably disposed of as out of date in the 19th century and has since served as a flower pot in the estate's park in Alt Karin . Pastor Gloede discovered the Fünte and brought it back to Neubukow. The interim font made of cheap, light-colored sandstone was thrown away. Photos of the baptism are shown in the Chronik Neubukow by Sebastian Heißel and in the Schlie . Pastor August Müller writes in his observance book: In 1859 a new baptismal apparatus was purchased: A cast-iron, richly bronze-plated baptismal font with a lid was placed on a hewn rock under the Arcus triumphalis (triumphal arch) and fixed in it. In 1859 a brass baptismal bowl was bought, which is still in use today. Only the rock base of the baptismal apparatus is preserved, it is located next to the church tower. The old baptismal font was walled up in the basement of a private house.
  • The carved oak pulpit from the end of the 17th century is intricately crafted. In the niches of the basket, with pilasters, there are relief figures of the four evangelists . The pulpit is equipped with a staircase and a sound cover .
  • The fragment of a grave slab from 1517 for Theodorich Runge has been preserved, a scratch drawing shows the clergyman.
  • The organ was installed in 1862 by the court organ builder Friedrich Friese III . It has 15 stops on two manuals and a pedal .
  • The stalls, like the galleries, were made in the 19th century.
  • The four bells were cast in 1930, 1951 and 1975.
  • The church houses some notable sacred objects, such as two goblets and paten in gilded silver, from 1729 and 1733. A silver box is from the 18th century. The pewter cup and paten were made in 17/18. Century made. Two pairs of pewter candlesticks were cast in 1733 and 1743.
