St. John's Chapel is located directly next to the cemetery in Köthel.
The chapel was part of the chapel-building program of the 1960s and was
designed and built in 1964/65, and consecrated in 1966.
On Sunday, March 24, 2019, St. John's Chapel in Köthel was sadly deconsecrated because it had to be sold. However, it will continue to be used for worship services, such as the "Night of Lights" during the darker months of the year, as well as for baptisms, weddings, and funerals, and also as a venue for special cultural events.
The children's play group, which has been based there for decades, will also remain.
The reason for the decision to remove St. John's Chapel from the parish's responsibility was the chapel's classification as no longer eligible for funding under the Lübeck-Lauenburg Church District's building plan.
"The parish could no longer support St. John's Church, as the chapel is affectionately called, financially and with the necessary personnel." The mayors of Köthel Lauenburg and Köthel Stormarn were approached about this. "We conducted negotiations, and the signal was given early on: handing over St. John's Church to the local people." Many Köthel residents, even if they are not church members, identify with the church. "During the discussions, it was important to us that the chapel remain accessible to the public and a place of encounter."
