    The small Michaeliskirche in Rüllschau, a district of the Maasbüll community in the Schleswig-Flensburg district in Schleswig-Holstein, was built from bricks at the beginning of the 13th century. Today it belongs together with the Marienkirche in Hürup to the parish Hürup-Rüllschau in the parish of Schleswig-Flensburg of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Northern Germany.

    Building history and equipment

    The Michaeliskirche in Rüllschau was built at the beginning of the 13th century on a hill on the edge of the village. It was probably initially a chapel in the St. Vincentius Church in Husby. In the Gothic period, probably around 1400, the nave was largely renewed. The original apse was replaced by a straight east wall. After the Reformation, the originally very small windows were replaced by larger ones. The small tower with the hand-rung bell dates from 1779. The porch, today's church entrance, was built in 1790 as a morgue.

    The interior is characterized by the painted wooden beam ceiling. The ceiling painting from the Baroque period was only rediscovered and supplemented in 1964. The organ gallery was moved in in the first half of the 17th century. The parapet was decorated with pictures of the apostles around Christ in 1643.

    The font from the time the church was built probably comes from the island of Funen. The baptismal lid was donated in 1692. Notable pre-Reformation furnishings are the large Easter candlestick, which was made from sheet iron in the 15th century, the triumphal cross above the altar and the crucifix in the vestibule, originally a lecture cross, and the figure of the Archangel Michael, which was created around 1300. The pulpit with its renaissance carvings was purchased in 1624. It was a foundation by Johann Adolf Laelius from Maasbüllhof.
