The Church of the Good Shepherd is a church building in Tangstedt in the Stormarn district . The originally neo-Gothic hall church with a semicircular apse was built in 1896 according to plans by the Hamburg architect Hugo Groothoff . The historical structure was partially destroyed by renovations in 1964/65.

Building

After the laying of the foundation stone on July 19, 1896, master carpenter H. Ellerbrock from Duvenstedt built the church according to plans by the architect Hugo Groothoff for 22,832 marks. Groothoff had already planned the church in Schiffbek (destroyed in 1943) in the vicinity and later also designed the churches in Lohbrügge and Reinbek . On December 20, 1896, the chapel, then called the Church of the Good Shepherd , was consecrated after a construction period of 5 months. During the renovation in 1964/65, architect Siegfried Buck from Norderstedt changed the fabric of the building considerably. He extended the nave with a vestibule by four meters, with the neo-Gothic gable being torn down and replaced by a concrete beam wall. The semicircular apse was extended to a rectangular shape, the roof of the church was covered with slate and the old roof turret was removed. Instead, a modern, free-standing bell tower 29 meters high was built next to the church. The construction measures, which cost a total of 210,000 D-Marks, are now considered to be “ an extreme example of the careless handling of historical buildings in the 1960s. “In 1993 the nave was restored to its original shape.
