Weistropp Church

The first mention of the place name Weistropp in 1233, when a Weistropp pastor appeared in a document with the name “plebanus de Wizdrop”, indicates the early existence of a church or small chapel. This was rebuilt several times over the centuries, possibly even rebuilt, including in 1499. Around 1500 the Weistropper Church was a parish church of the Archdeaconate of Nisan. The font and pulpit date from 1602 and 1607, respectively. The donors are depicted on the pulpit, a married couple from the von Güntherode family. Since 1723 the landlords have been able to reach their patronage box directly from the castle via a passage in a new wing of the building. In 1725, George Bähr, the master builder of the Dresden Frauenkirche, led a baroque redesign of the interior.Source: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weistropp#Kirche
