<< Propsteikirche St. Clemens >>
"The Propsteikirche St. Clemens is a late Gothic hall church of the Westphalian type. Construction began in 1522. It replaced an old Romanesque church from the 13th century that was destroyed in the great city fire around 1500. In 1865 the church tower was demolished and then the Nave extended by a yoke The new tower was completed in 1876. The cross hanging in the chancel arch comes from the old Romanesque church (around 1210).The corpus, carved from oak by an unknown artist, is covered with silver.
Around 1460, the ten apostle figures were made of Baumberg sandstone and can be found on the end walls of the side aisles and between the chancel windows. The late-Gothic stone Madonna at the entrance to the chancel is an outstanding 15th-century sculpture.
A special treasure of the provost church is the hunger cloth from 1623, which is kept in the neighboring RELíGIO museum. For almost three hundred years, the famine was hung up in the chancel of the church during Lent.
The Telgte artist Ludwig Baur designed the choir windows (from 1950), which take up motifs from the revelation. The church windows of the nave, in the lower panels of which are the names and coats of arms of various communities that traditionally make pilgrimages to Telgte during the pilgrimage season, come from his workshop."
