Niegripp Village Church

The village church Niegripp is the Protestant church of Niegripp in Saxony-Anhalt.
The church was built in 1732 at the instigation of the Prussian King Friedrich Wilhelm I by the surveyor Friedrich August Fiedler. The result was a Baroque plastered brick building, whose four wings are arranged in the shape of a Greek cross. At the intersection of the wings rises a wooden tower consisting of two octagonal lanterns and a high peak. The front walls of the cross arms are each provided with a sandstone-framed portal and three segmental arched windows. The four worn saddle roofs of the cross arms are covered with red tiles, while the tower is included. In the eastern cross arm is a pulpit altar, framed by two composite columns and with a strong-bellied multi-sided pulpit basket. On the side of him is a painting of the painter Fridrich Grismeyer attached to the sacrament scene. In the west wing is the glazed and elaborately decorated former Patronatsloge. The organ (2 manuals / 12 registers), created in 1885 by organ builder Albert Hollenbach from Neuruppin, is provided with a round-arched prospectus. The cup-shaped baptismal font made of sandstone dates back to the predecessor church and dates back to 1676.de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorfkirche_Niegripp
