ギュルパー湖のおすすめランニングルート

The village church of Rhinow not only stands as beautifully as churches in Brandenburg do – it also tells stories. Of fire and reconstruction, of piety and nobility, of organ builders and sculptors, of pilgrims and the Pietà. Built in the 13th century from Brandenburg fieldstone, then burned down in 1735, and rebuilt by 1740 – it bears all this with the calm of one that has seen much. Inside: a horseshoe gallery like a Baroque viewing balcony, a Lütkemüller organ from 1848 that still plays on Sundays. The wall features coats of arms of the von Hagen family, and a golden sun hovers above the altar – a symbolic God in the countryside. It is especially quiet down in the tower, where a carved Pietà from the 15th century stands: Mary, holding the dead Christ in her arms. A scene as old as human compassion. Those who dismount their bikes here may feel the long-lasting impact of history – and be happy to find a bench in the shade, a drink of water, and a sense that pilgrimage can be not just a path, but also an attitude.
