Störtebeker Tower and Marienkirche Marienhafe

Highlight • Religious Site

The Protestant-Lutheran Mary's Church in Marienhafe was until its partial demolition in 1829, the largest and most important sacred building in East Frisia. It was built in the 13th century in Marienhafe Marienhafe, which had about 500 inhabitants at that time, in the style of early Gothic and reached then the dimensions of the Osnabrück Cathedral and was considered the largest church between Groningen and Bremen. For a long time, the church was a significant landmark. The Leybucht, which owes its name to the old name of today's Norder lows, [2] reached right up to the building. Later the church was connected to the North Sea via Störtebeker Tief. At the end of the 14th century, the pirate Klaus Störtebeker was said to have lived in the church, but this has not been proven to date. After the Reformation in Marienhafe 1593 was a last attempt to establish a common church order for the religiously divided into a Lutheran East and a Reformed West county Ostfriesland. This was decided, but never implemented. In the 17th and 18th centuries, the church decayed more and more, so that in 1829 it was mostly canceled. In the subsequent conversion, she received her present form. prehistory

The Brookmerland was first settled in the 12th century, when heavy storm surges and the collapse of the Leybucht pushed many people from the coast to the interior of East Frisia. The Leybucht reached at that time to today's place Marienhafe. The church is first mentioned in documents on February 16, 1250 as curia sancte Marie (= Court of St. Mary). In this document, the detachment of the Brookmerlandes from the Propstei Hinte and the formation of its own, the episcopal official in Munster directly subordinated provost "Brokmannia" was agreed.

Marienhafe was probably planned as a market place created, but initially was probably not a separate place. The oldest preserved church seal contains the inscription sigillum ecclesie S. Marie de Uppagent. This suggests that the church area belonged to the municipality of Upgant. [4]

Great sculpture of a legendary personality. The visit is worthwhile simply because of all the stories about Störtebecker.

Lütetsburg Castle

Highlight • Castle

Entry costs are currently two euros, but they are also worthwhile. Interesting stock of rhododendrons and honeysuckle, old trees and many small ponds. Idyllic and romantic. Here you can go for a walk and linger. There is also a café in the castle park.

St. Ansgari Church, Hage

Highlight • Religious Site

The massive west tower was added to the building before 1250. It is still completely influenced by the style of Romanesque and has pilasters, arches and arched openings. It slopes significantly west, which is explained by the fact that it rests with its east wall on the pressed by the church warts ground, with its west side, however, on unpaved ground, which was lowered over time
