    Like a queen, the Sellin Church of Grace stands on a slope west of August-Bebel-Straße. It also stands on princely ground, because the building site at the western end of Kirchstraße was once donated by the Princess and Lady of Putbus. And for the inauguration of the church, the German Empress and Queen of Prussia Auguste Victoria even donated the altar Bible and dedicated it to the church. A truly royal treasure that is carefully preserved in the parish archive. In 1960, the church was badly damaged by a fire. Nevertheless, it was rebuilt, despite all state power and violence. The church was given a new roof and three new bells, the interior was given a new, simple design and the organ was repaired by the Sauer company. So, in the middle of the GDR era, this church had a new beginning. kirche-auf-moenchgut.de/unsere-kirchen/die-koenigliche-in-sellin.html

      "The laying of the foundation stone for the church took place on August 20, 1912. On the building plot, which was provided by the Princess of Putbus, the inauguration of the church was celebrated on July 8, 1913. A fire on April 24, 1960 destroyed the roof of the Church and the bells and devastated the interior of the church strongly In the following period, the church was quickly rebuilt and celebrated on September 24 again topping.

      The three bells cast in Apolda, consecrated in 1963, bear the inscriptions: "Dona nobis pachem (Lord, give us peace)", "The word of the Lord beats into eternity and war" and "For us bobbs took us like sins to hang out and hang out here, let us hear from the Lord ... "The bell plant was first rebuilt in June 1990 and rebuilt in 1995. After 1965, the organ was repaired in 1994 again.
      The church building in the style of the Neo-Baroque has an octagonal structure. On the top of the mansard roof is an open lantern. "Source: ostsee.de/insel-ruegen/kirche-sellin.html
