Altes Pfarrhaus, Protected rectory in Brinkum, Stuhr, Germany.
The Altes Pfarrhaus is a two-story residential building of clinker brick featuring a central gable and pitched roof built in the 1880s. The structure stands on Kirchstrasse and shows the building style typical of that era in the region.
The building was constructed in 1883 to replace an older rectory that had fallen into disrepair. It served as a residence for parish staff members until 2016.
The building displays typical features of Lower Saxony architecture seen in northern German rectories. These design choices continue to shape how the village looks and reflect local building traditions.
The building is protected and accessible, having undergone renovations in 1964, 1982, and 2016. Both floors are now available for different purposes and the location can be reached via Kirchstrasse 1.
The ground floor once housed a play group for children, marking a shift from religious to community use. This change shows how the building adapted to serve new needs for the village.
