Church of St. Fabian and St. Sebastian, Sülze, Lutheran church in Sülze, Germany
The Church of St. Fabian and St. Sebastian in Sülze is a Lutheran church with an integrated clock tower showing 18th-century German architectural features. An adjoining parish hall built in 1939 regularly hosts services and community gatherings.
The original foundation dates back to 1502 when Carsten and Otto von Harling along with Gesche Vlothwedel established the first structure. The current building was constructed in 1754 after earlier structures on the site were demolished.
The interior features a combined pulpit and altar from the 17th century with oil paintings of three evangelists that shape how the space feels when you enter. These artworks remain central to the church's visual character.
The church is accessible during regular worship services held year-round. Visitors should note that the building serves as an active community center and may not always be freely accessible outside scheduled times.
Two patron saint statues flank the altar: a late medieval Saint Sebastian figure and a Saint Fabian sculpture carved in the year 2000. This pairing of ancient and contemporary artwork shows how the church carries its tradition into the present day.
