Staats Village Church

One of the many brick churches in the Altmark

The village church in Staats was built from brick in 1880/1881 in the Neo-Romanesque style. The simple structure comprises a nave with a square steeple projecting to the west and a small, polygonal chancel on the east side. Striking features include the buttresses in the nave and chancel, as well as the two-part pointed-arch windows with original glazing from the time of construction, which depict figurative depictions.Inside, a wooden ceiling spans the nave, while the chancel has a vault. The furnishings are simple and largely preserved in their original condition. Particularly noteworthy is the pulpit, made by Gustav Kuntzsch of Wernigerode. A large statue of the Virgin Mary from the early 16th century is located in the tower. The current interior design dates from 1966.

The simple brick church was built in 1880/1881 in the neo-Romanesque style. According to an inscription on the door, the church building was built under District Administrator Friedrich Wilhelm von Kröcher (1810–1891).
