St. Laurentius, Romanesque church in Süsel, Germany.

St. Laurentius stands on the Kirchanger in the centre of Süsel. Its square brick tower rises on a foundation of hewn natural stone and carries a classical portal inscribed "RENOVIRT 1844" in metal letters; the tower narrows upward to a tiled roof topped by a ridge turret, with a clock face on each side. The nave, choir and semicircular apse are built of fieldstone, with larger brick surfaces on the south side and brick buttresses added on the north.

The church was built between 1160 and 1180 as a Romanesque structure and has shaped village life since its origins. The original round tower was eventually replaced with a square one, and the interior underwent several changes over time.

St. Laurentius is one of the Vicelin churches founded during the eastward colonisation, and its name day is marked in the village. In the immediate vicinity stand a monument to the fallen of both World Wars and three memorial stones for Kaiser Wilhelm I, Otto von Bismarck and Moltke, which visitors pass on the Kirchanger.

The church is open during religious services and for visitors on specific weekdays through the parish office. It is best to contact ahead to confirm visiting times and arrange access if you wish to explore the interior.

The tower's neoclassical portal carries metal letters reading "RENOVIRT 1844", marking the year the original round tower was replaced by the present square brick one. The tower tapers through a tiled offset into a small roof turret, with a clock face on each side.
