Today, July 28, 2025, the sun is shining on the water tower. I took this photo in portrait format.

It's worth a look. It's easy to miss when driving by.

A truly remarkable little church in the village of Seester. Not only is the interior worth a visit, but the large bells in their wooden frames, placed separately next to the church building, are also impressive.

St. John's Church was first mentioned in documents in 1223. The church that can be seen today was built in 1428 or shortly before. It was originally only half as big and was later expanded to its current size. Multiple renovations and repairs (on a larger scale in 1844 and 1888/89) gave the church its current appearance. The interior is remarkable. The baroque altar, one of the most beautiful in Holstein, was donated by local farmers in 1631, in the middle of the Thirty Years' War. Scenes from the life and death of Jesus are shown on six panels in beautiful, rustic-looking carvings. Above them you can see Moses with the tablets of the law and John the Baptist, with a picture of the resurrection in between. The pulpit, carved in transitional forms from the Renaissance to the Baroque, also dates from 1631. It shows Jesus, Matthew with the angel, Luke with the bull, Mark with the lion and John with the eagle. In the middle of the aisle there is a Lazarus figure as an offering box. The poor block probably dates from 1613, the Lazarus figure probably from 1656-1661, when the poor block, which was damaged during the Thirty Years' War, was repaired. The old organ behind the altar is no longer playable; the new organ was built by the Danish company Marcussen and consecrated in 1968. On the southeast wall is the box for the family of the Counts of Kielmannsegg, followed by further boxes. The free-standing bell tower was already mentioned in a wood invoice at the end of the 16th century. The wood has of course been renewed several times. In addition to the bell tower, there was also a tower for a time, but it was destroyed in 1628 and not rebuilt. The large bell was cast in 1668, the small one as a replacement for previous ones after the Second World War. The church is surrounded by the old cemetery, which is surrounded by 120-year-old linden trees. With its large number of relatively well-preserved gravestones from the 18th and 19th centuries, it is an outstanding cultural monument. https://www.kirche-hamburg.de/gemeinden/ev-luth-kirchengemeinde-seester/st-johanneskirche.html

This beautiful old water tower is a cultural monument

The Evangelical Lutheran St. John's Church in Seester, Schleswig-Holstein, is a patron church of the Uetersen Monastery. St. Johannes only became Protestant in 1555 because the Uetersen monastery had refused to follow the Danish king's order for the Reformation until then. (Source: Wikipedia)

no matter which direction, the barriers are simply fantastic.

Nice that hard-working, helpful people take care of the animals. When it is repeated on 6/28/23 there will be a viewing.
