Sieverstedt - St. Peter

13 Jul 2021 96
Sieverstedt in its present form is still a fairly young municipality. It was newly formed in 1971 from several smaller villages. St. Peter stands in the old village of Stenderup, known as "Stenthorp" as early as 1196. In 1100, a century earlier, the church was built of fieldstone in the Romanesque architectural style. The wooden bell tower ("Glockenstapel"), however, is much younger. Unfortunately the church was locked.

This is a Romanesque fieldstone building consisting of a flat-roofed single-nave nave and a box choir. The church has a wooden bell tower ("Glockenstapel)" was added in 1684. The church is located in the parish of Kleinsolt, but not in the village of the same name, but instead in the village of Freienwill. The church was unfortunately locked.
