Ascheberg - St. Lambertus

21 Jun 2018 1 125
Ascheberg developed from a settlement around a church, that was presumably founded mid 9th century by Saint Ludger, the missionar of Westphalia. The parish church, dedicated to St. Lambertus of Maastricht, was erected around 1520 in late Gothic style. The choir was added 1737 following a plan drawn by architect Johann Conrad Schlaun, the most important baroque architect of Northern Germany. There are some nice (and veluable) works of art here, but the most unique one I found is this statue. St. Martin is depicted with a child, holdig a lantern. Martin of Tours without his usual attributes, connected to "St. Martin's Singing", a regional custom.
