A church built in the turmoil of World War I is something special. The Jävenitzer church is one of these churches. It was consecrated on October 7, 1917. At that time, the war was far from over. This would not be until a good year later, on November 11, 1918, with the signing of the Compiègne ceasefire agreement.

The Jävenitz village church, a striking brick building, was built between 1914 and 1918 and consecrated on October 7, 1917, during the First World War. The building is a Gothic-style hall structure with a recessed rectangular chancel and a square tower in the west. The delicate blind tracery decorations on the tower are particularly striking. The artistic design of the chancel was completed in 1920 and 1921.

Interested visitors have the opportunity to explore the Jävenitz village church virtually using a 3D model.
