    From the outside a simple brick building, almost like children paint a church. Inside, a designed room that tells of the formative power and the beauty of the 18th century. Take the time to discover our church with the eyes and the heart in the portrait. The community church council wishes you blessed and quiet moments in the "Open Friedrichskirche". Let yourself be touched by the light and the clarity of God whom our ancestors have glorified to build this beautiful house.

      The Friedrichskirche is a new building that replaced the St. Vitus Church, a wooden church from the second half of the 13th century. It had become too small and too dilapidated and probably no longer suited the taste of the community, which in the eighteenth century had become more cosmopolitan and prosperous. brake-touristinfo.de/unterweser/friedrichskirche.html

        In place of the wooden church from the second half of the 13th century, which was too small and dilapidated, the construction of today's church began in 1760, as stated in the inscription above the portal. It was inaugurated on July 22, 1764. The rectangular brick hall church, whose nave is supported by buttresses, is covered with a gabled roof that is hipped to the east. The bell tower to the west, in which hangs a 1786 church bell, is capped with an eight-sided slated pointed spire.

        The interior is covered with a segmental barrel vault made of wood, the ribs and belt arches of which are made of stucco. At the intersection of the ribs there are ornaments. On three sides there are galleries supported by supports with headbands, on which and on either side of the pulpit altar are bunkers.

        The church furnishings date from the time of construction. The wooden pulpit altar with free-standing columns is decorated with paintings depicting the Crucifixion, the Resurrection and the Last Supper. In the crowning two putti are painted in grisaille.

        The prospectus and eleven registers of the organ, which was built by Johann Hinrich Klapmeyer in 1756-1766 with 24 registers, two manuals and a pedal, have been preserved.
