Description
Back panel of a pulpit made to replace a neo-Gothic pulpit from 1817, which was supposed to match a baroque altar restored to the church. The panel is separated with a decorative frame that embraces a semicircular closed arcade. Crucifix put on imitatively. Originally on the back panel was a fragment of Psalm 51:15 "Herr, tue meine Lippen auf, daß mein Mund deinen Ruhm verkündige". [O Lord, open my lips; and my mouth will declare your praise.]
