Koserow church, Gothic church in Koserow, Germany

Koserow church is a brick structure on the Pomeranian coast, first built at the end of the 13th century. The building shows fieldstone in its lower portions and brick in the upper sections, with a Gothic tower added during the 15th century expansion.

The building was raised at the end of the 13th century, making it the oldest church on the Baltic coast of Usedom island. In the 15th century it underwent major renovation with the addition of its Gothic tower and windows, which define its appearance today.

The church's name comes from the village of Koserow on Usedom's Baltic coast. Inside, a chandelier was donated by Zempin fishermen on 6 January 1900 as thanks for an exceptionally large catch in the Achterwasser. The baptismal bowl and altar candlestick are brass repoussé works from around 1650; the bowl shows Eve handing Adam the apple.

The church stands in Koserow on Usedom's Baltic coast and is enclosed by a complete ring of fieldstone wall, so walk the perimeter to see the choir's squared fieldstone and the brick upper sections. The south portal was renewed in May 2015, and the tower's west side received repairs the same month. The interior was renovated in 2009 and the windows renewed in 2007.

On the north choir wall, above the font, hangs a late-Gothic oak crucifix about 2.33 metres tall, probably carved around 1400. Its origin is in fact unknown, and whether it is Swedish work cannot be determined with certainty.
