    The new building in 1713 was a baroque hall church with a five-sided choir. Of course, this "new church" also underwent a number of renovations in the following period, such as in 1825, 1853-1856, 1898, 1922, 1950 and the large, comprehensive renovation in 1968 under Pastor Görke.

    Before the new building was built in 1710, a wooden, free-standing bell tower with three bells was built in front of the west side of the church. These bells hung there until 1917 (melted down) and were only replaced by three new steel bells in 1922. The church tower burned down completely in 1978 and was then rebuilt in wood in 1979. The three bells also fell victim to the fire, and so three new bronze bells were added to the new tower.

      During Advent, a Christmas market usually takes place at St. John's Church on the first Saturday in December. The cozy glow of lights around St. John's Church invites you to eat and drink.

      Next to St. John's Church you can admire the 2 old church tower bells in the green area.
      The wooden bell tower rises in front of the church.


      You can easily walk around the church with a stroller.
