Adelby - Johanniskirche

Adelby - Johanniskirche
Adelby, once an old parish just east of Flensburg, is meanwhile a part of the city of Flensburg. This makes the Johanniskirche in Adelsby to Flensburg´s oldest church.

The first church here was built around 1080. About a century later a Romanesque fieldstone church got erected. In the 15th or 16th century, a porch was added in front of the main entrance. In the 18th century, an extensive reconstruction took place. In 1726, the wooden tower was replaced by the present Baroque tower. Then the nave was raised with bricks and extended to the east as well as to the west up to the church tower. By 1780, the present hall church with a wide box choir was thus created.
