Neuenkirchen: Hotels and Accommodations
St. Mary Magdalene Church is the Protestant parish church of Neuenkirchen on the Lebbin Peninsula in western Rügen. Neuenkirchen (Rügen) is a municipality in the district of Vorpommern-Rügen.
Culture and History
The church acquired its present Gothic brick form between 1380 and 1450. A medieval holy water basin is incorporated into a fieldstone at the south portal. Inside, there is a Renaissance pulpit dating from 1567, originally from St. Mary's Church in Bergen. A bell originally dated to 1367 is considered the oldest on Rügen. The church is freely accessible at any time.
A manor complex dating from the late 19th century is known as the Liddow cultural heritage site. The painter Reeckmann uses the buildings as a workshop and gallery; exhibitions and auctions are also held there regularly.
