Village Church and Parish

Thielbeer Church was first mentioned in the mid-13th century and was once at the heart of village life. Its first mention provides an early historical reference point; its former role as a focal point reflects the church’s importance in village life. Thielbeer belongs to the parish, which includes Arendsee, Genzien, Gestien, Kläden, Kraatz, Kleinau, Dessau, Lohne, Sanne-Kerkuhn, Schrampe, Ziemendorf, Zießau and Zühlen. This ecclesiastical connection thus extends beyond the village itself. If you would like to see the village churches inside, you can ask the chairpersons of the church council (GKR). A parish is an ecclesiastical district that brings together several places and their associated congregations in a shared church organization.
