Dorfkirche Kranepuhl, Parish church in Kranepuhl, Germany.
Dorfkirche Kranepuhl is a rectangular stone church with a brick roof and is entered through a small arched stone door. The structure displays typical field stone architecture with later additions from various periods.
The church was built in the 13th century from field stone and underwent changes in the 16th century. A new wooden and brick roof tower was added during renovation work in 1993.
The church serves as a gathering place for the community and shapes the village landscape with its simple architecture. It remains the center of religious practice and social connection for local residents.
The church is located about eight kilometers west of Niemegk and can be reached via district roads K6927 and K6930. Visitors will find parking available near the building.
Hidden beneath later building changes is an original semicircular apse on the eastern end, revealed through archaeological study. This early architectural feature shows how the church was reshaped across centuries.
