Village church Tuchen, Heritage church in Breydin, Germany
Village church Tuchen is a half-timbered building with a western tower and polygonal apse from the early 18th century in Breydin, Brandenburg. The renovated interior now provides space for about 60 people during events or celebrations.
The new building was erected between 1711 and 1718 after King Frederick I granted 25 thalers to replace the earlier stone structure. Following a storm and collapse in 1990, villagers founded a support association in 1997 that organized the restoration.
Since 1997 the church has belonged to the municipality of Tuchen-Klobbicke and is managed by the association Fachwerkkirche Tuchen e. V., while the Protestant parish keeps a right of use. The building, secularised after its collapse, now serves mainly as a venue for weddings and celebrations rather than regular worship.
The space is suitable for civil and religious weddings or other private celebrations with up to 60 guests throughout the year. Access is via the small roads of Breydin village, and parking is available nearby.
The Förderverein Fachwerkkirche Tuchen e. V. has managed the building since 1997, while the Protestant parish kept a right of use. The congregation of Tuchen-Klobbicke had taken over the church that same year, after the nave collapsed in a storm in 1990 and was rebuilt between 1991 and 1998.
