Since 1618 there is a church building in Tripkau. In 1757 it was replaced by a simple hall construction without a tower, and this half-timbered building still forms the nave in its original substance, which was expanded in 1864 to include choir, sacristy and tower.
Of the old equipment from the 18th century only the gallery is preserved; Pulpit, baptismal font and altar have remained of the Gothicizing equipment of the 19th century; the organ dates from the 18th century, but was later placed in this church.

A beautiful half-timbered church, it was built in 1864. The first church that stood on this site was built in 1618.

Not far from the town of Hitzacker, known for its music weeks, but on the eastern side of the Elbe is the village of Tripkau. It is worth a trip through its St. Mary's Church. The brick-lined half-timbered building with the unusual tower is more than worth seeing from the outside.
But the interior design of the church is even more unusual and surprising: the walls, ceiling, floor and even the windows are covered all over with crosses, all with a side length of one meter and either upright or rotated 45 degrees.
