St. Secundus-Kirche, Heritage church in Hennstedt, Germany

The St. Secundus Church features late Romanesque architecture constructed with fieldstone walls and a Gothic choir section added around 1470.

The parish of Hennstedt was first documented in 1281 through a contract between Hamburg and Dithmarschen, separating from the existing Tellingstedt parish of 1140.

The church displays Baroque furnishings, including a pulpit from 1651 by Henning Claussen and a baptismal font with relief carvings by Hans Pahl.

Located at the highest point of the Geest in Hennstedt, the church received a barrel vault in 1863 to enhance its acoustic properties.

The church exhibits a replica of the Reformation tapestry from 1667, depicting the story of salvation through scenes from Jesus's life.
