Maria-Magdalenen-Kirche Malente - Schleswig-Holstein, Germany - This Old Church on Waymarking.com

[GER] Die Maria-Magdalenen-Kirche in Malente ist die Kirche in der Gemeinde Malente im Kreis Ostholstein in Schleswig-Holstein. Sie befindet sich in der Ortsmitte umgeben von dem (ehemaligen) Kirchanger. Sie ist das älteste Gebäude in Malente und wird heute von der evangelisch-lutherischen Kirchengemeinde Malente für Gottesdienste genutzt.
Die Kirche entstand im 13. Jahrhundert als Folge der Schlacht bei Bornhöved 1227, in der Graf Adolf IV. im Gebet Maria Magdalena um Beistand gebeten haben soll. Nach dem Sieg stiftete er u. a. Kirchen – worauf auch der Bau der Kirche zurückgeführt wird, der im Stil der Frühgotik erfolgte. Durch das gewählte Baumaterial gehört die Maria-Magdalenen-Kirche zu den für das östliche Holstein typischen Feldsteinkirchen.
Die heutige Kirche ist im Wesentlichen in zwei Phasen errichtet worden: Während das Kirchengebäude auf das 13. Jahrhundert zurückgeht, wurde der Turm 1893 ergänzt und im Stil der Neogotik errichtet. Das Kirchenschiff wurde hierbei auf der Westseite etwas verlängert.

[ENG] The Maria Magdalenen Church in Malente is the church in the parish of Malente in the district of Ostholstein in Schleswig-Holstein. It is located in the centre of the village surrounded by the (former) Kirchanger. It is the oldest building in Malente and is used today by the Protestant-Lutheran parish of Malente for church services.
The church was built in the 13th century as a result of the Battle of Bornhöved in 1227, in which Count Adolf IV is said to have asked Mary Magdalene for help in prayer. After the victory, he donated churches, among other things - to which the construction of the church, which took place in the early Gothic style, is attributed. Due to the building material chosen, the Church of Mary Magdalene is one of the fieldstone churches typical of eastern Holstein.
Today's church was essentially built in two phases: While the church building dates back to the 13th century, the tower was completed in 1893 and built in the neo-Gothic style. The nave was slightly extended on the west side.
