The eight leaded glass windows created by Erhardt Klonk from 1962 to 1965 have a lasting effect on the interior. [9] Shown are scenes of the Revelation of John. In the large round window above the organ, a judgment angel is portrayed according to Rev 7,2-3 LUT, which banishes the evil powers with the sign of the cross and thus paves the way for the coming salvation. The right-hand window on the north wall shows God the Father in His radiant majesty (Rev. 4: 2-11 LUT), who is worshiped by the entire animal kingdom and the 24 elders who represent the redeemed church. On the left window, the heavenly Jerusalem is measured by angels in Rev. 21: 10-16 LUT. Twelve angels surround Christ, the Lamb of God. The window above the altar shows Christ as a triumphant over the rainbow flanked by two trumpeting angels. The prophets Micah and Haggai, shown in the lower panels, and the evangelists Matthew and John are witnesses of this event. In Rev. 22,1-2 LUT, on the right window below the Southpore, the throne of God is seen as the source of life with the symbols of the Trinity, on the left the vision of Christ from Rev. 1: 9-20 LUT, from its mouth a sword comes out. He is surrounded by seven candlesticks and holds seven stars in his hand that stand for Christendom. In the right-hand window above the gallery, Christ appears as a Lamb with the symbols of the Lord's Supper, while the martyrs hope for their salvation (Rev 7: 9-17 LUT), in the left he appears as victorious ruler on the white horse (according to Rev. 19) , 11-21 LUT).
