Church of St. Mary Magdalene (Kostel svaté Maří Magdalény)
Highlight • Religious Site
In 1518, a new building was built in the form of a small, one-story half-timbered church. It was surrounded by a cemetery, which had been used as a burial site since around 1500. Behind the church, on a higher level, there was a vicarage garden. In the 16th century, the Reformation took hold. As early as 1535, a pastor is said to have preached in St. Andrew's Church. In 1554, the council officially adopted Lutheran doctrine. Until 1624, the vicarage was filled by 13 Lutheran clergy in succession. The first was Andreas Hampisch.[3] The church was destroyed in the town fire of 1604, but was rebuilt shortly afterwards. In 1605, it received new bells from the bell founder Hans Wild from St. Joachimsthal. During the Thirty Years' War, the church was again destroyed by fire. The last pastor, Johannes Rebhun, had to leave the country on August 24, 1624, on the orders of Emperor Ferdinand II, along with those citizens who did not convert to Catholicism. Rebhun became pastor in Culmitzsch in the diocese of Weida in 1624 and died in 1675.
In 1628, Catholic worship was forcibly reintroduced. Many citizens, especially women, only converted later. The first Catholic pastor since the Reformation was the Augustinian monk Father Franciscus Albinus. He was followed in turn by Knights of the Cross, secular priests and other religious clergy. Since 1656, the parish office has always been filled by Knights of the Cross. From 1698, the Knights of the Cross exercised the right of presentation jointly with the city's magistrate, in the form that the Grand Master proposed three religious priests from whom the magistrate selected one, who was then presented to the prince-archbishop's consistory.[4]
