St. Petri Church in Ketzin / Havel

The church was built between 1150 and 1180 in the form of a fortified church and was consecrated to the Apostle Peter. The lower tower is made of field stones that probably date from that time. In the years 1756-1763 the nave was rebuilt and a so-called hall church was created.

The pulpit altar dates from 1713, was designed by the Ketzin master carpenter Frentsche and is a solid craftsmanship in the late baroque style. In addition to the Luther rose, three other Christian symbols are depicted on the pulpit: faith (Bible), hope (anchor) and love (heart). The Ketzin coat of arms can be seen on the gallery above the south entrance. The baptismal font was also created by the Ketzin master carpenter. The brass baptismal bowl was donated in 1662 by the church mayor Lehmann.

After a fire in 1849, a new organ found its place again in the gallery on the west side of the nave. Of the original bells, only the oldest from 1555 has survived. The other bronze bells were removed and melted down during World War I. In 2005, 2 bronze bells were cast and hung next to the old one from 1555 in the newly built bell cage.

Located on the east bank of the Havel, in the Havelländischen Luch, it was mentioned as early as 1197 as "villa Cosetzyn" and in 1255 it was referred to as an oppidum (market town).

For the first time the holding of a market is attested for the year 1424. The St. Petri Church in Ketzin was built between 1150 and 1180 in the form of a fortified church and consecrated to the Apostle Peter. The church is mentioned in the certificate of Margrave Otto II from 1197. However, only the church tower, originally a defensive tower, has survived from its former shape. Like this one, the whole complex probably had a defensive character.

If you walk along Albrechtstraße in the direction of the Havel, you will still recognize the old wall with arches as the southern boundary of the churchyard. Erected from bricks in the so-called monastery format and due to the increased ground level, half of it has now disappeared into the earth.
