Twelve Apostles Church (Tutow)
The Twelve Apostles Church is a church building in Tutow in the Vorpommern-Greifswald district . The Protestant parish has been part of the Demmin Propstei in the Pomeranian Evangelical Church District of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Northern Germany since 2012 . Before that she belonged to the Demmin parish of the Pomeranian Evangelical Church .
A church was also included in the concept of the Tutow settlement built in the 1930s. The construction of this church is said to have been banned by Hermann Göring as Reich Minister of Aviation . The believers had to go to the churches in Tutow-Dorf or Zemmin .
The present church was supported by donations from Schleswig-Holstein from the DDR - foreign trade operation " Limex-Bau Export-Import built". It was completed and inaugurated in February 1991.
The church is a tent-like twelve-sided central building that was designed as a reinterpretation of Western Pomeranian church buildings such as the Vitter Chapel or the Griebenow Castle Chapel . The corners symbolize the 12 apostles , whose names and attributes were engraved in the sanctuary. The interior of the church enables flexible room design. The church has a free-standing bell tower.
