Village Church Wetzenow

Highlight • Religious Site

A small, plastered hall building from the 16th century with a recessed north-east corner. The walls of the hall are made of various building materials, and the gables are half-timbered from 1672. The church tower on the west side consists of a field-stone foundation made during construction and a superstructure, also built in 1672, with a timbered, sloping upper storey with a slate pointed cupola, which could come from another church. The windows of the auditorium on the east side are sectional arched windows with stepped eaves and corner rustication, on the north side there are pointed arched windows in niches and rectangular windows also with eaves. The cemetery is surrounded by a wall of stone without mortar. The church was in danger of falling into disrepair, and in 1996 it was in danger of collapsing. In the meantime, the church has been completely restored with private donations and with the help of the State Monument Conservation and the German Foundation for the Preservation of Monuments, so that a rededication could take place in 2000. Today, the Church is a popular excursion destination for special services in the parish of Zerrenthin.

Inside, there is a flat ceiling with biblical ornaments and motifs, probably made in 1905 by Erich Kistenmacher from Berlin. The small, colorful, Renaissance-style altar from the 17th century probably consists of the remains of a larger altar and depicts a relief of the Last Supper between the two columns and Christ as at the top. The altar cage, on the other hand, comes from the nineteenth century, as well as the pews and gallery, and the pulpit with a back wall and a soundproofing screen was probably built around 1800. The carved figure of John the Baptist, also found in the church, dates from the first half of the 16th century and was probably part of another altar, but was a study window depicting the Crucifixion, made after 1690. Several funerary consoles are from the 18th and 19th centuries. The church in Wetzen also has a wooden epitaph for Beate Louise Krumbach (1808-1822) with carved acanthus cheeks and a canopy.

The organ with a neo-Gothic casing was built in 1905 by Barnim Grüneberg from Szczecin. The only existing bell on the church tower was cast in 1840, according to other sources, in 1880 by Carl Voß from Szczecin

Village Church of Roggow

Highlight • Religious Site

A neglected church in the village of Roggow.
The church in Roggów, destroyed from the outside, was originally a plastered building made of field stone. It presents architectural details made of brick and the remains of plastered corner lesenes in late-classical forms from 1850. It has a boarded roof tower over the western gable. On the windowless eastern side, there are two recessed crosses in the wall. The stepped windows and west portal are rounded and show remains of the faschen. The church and cemetery with single historical burial places are surrounded by an only partially preserved stone wall, which (since 2014) is heavily overgrown with bushes, undergrowth and grass.
In the interior with a flat roof, the remains of a painting by Erich Kistenmacher from 1915 can be seen on the walls. The preserved wooden furnishings, including the pulpit basket and benches, probably come from the 19th-century renovation.
The only bell in the church was cast in 1854 by Carl Friedrich Voß from Szczecin

Polzow Church

Highlight • Religious Site

The village church in Polzow is a rectangular hall built of hewn field stone from the 16th century with a boarded roof tower over the western gable, which was probably built in the 18th century. The windows and the entrance portal on the west side were rebuilt in the 19th century in the neo-gothic style. There is a small ossuary on the east side of the church and two small ogival windows in the gable on the east side. The church together with the cemetery, where there is also a cemetery, is surrounded by a field stone wall. The church was completely renovated in 2004 and then re-consecrated.
The interior has a flat ceiling and depicts biblical scenes from the Old Testament and flagellation ornaments. Like the Last Supper on the eastern wall, the painting is probably from Erich Kistenmacher of Berlin in 1910 or, according to other sources, from 1914/15. The pulpit with rear wall and sound shield dates from the 17th century and has panels between the columns in the basket.
The only bell in the Polzów church was cast in 1704 by Johann Jacob Schulz from Berlin

Rossow Church

Highlight • Religious Site

The fieldstone church from the 13th century, which has changed many times over the course of time, was built from neatly layered granite blocks. In 1994, a free-standing winter church made of glass and steel was integrated into the church interior and the furnishings were renewed, giving the church interior a more modern look as the original seating is no longer there.
