St. Johannis-Harvestehude (St. John-Harvestehude), Hamburg, is a neo-gothic Protestant church built between 1880 and 1882. The church is one of the best-preserved turn-of-the-century monuments of Hamburg. == History == Foundation of the parish of St. John-Harvestehude on the 27th of January, 1879. The first parish council, presided by the future mayor Dr. I. H. Mönckeberg, selected the design of the architect Wilhelm Hauers out of seven proposals. The "provisorial committee for the construction of a church in front of the Dammthor" had already settled issues of property with the town and could provide capital, so that the works could swiftly be carried out within the years 1880 to 1882. The architect Hauers designed the church in the spirit of the "Eisenacher Regulativ" of 1861. The result is an architectural composition that is nearly complete in its neogothical sense of art. The pews, chairs and lecterns may be counted among this, as well as the organ prospectus, the terrazzo-floor and the fresci. The spires of St. John are clearly visible, in particular at night, from various parts of the town. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「St. Johannis Harvestehude Hamburg」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
