St. Anna Church in Großenmeer, built in 1600, is a modest hall structure made of plastered brick with a polygonal eastern end. The church was constructed in the Großenmeer area, which was once a large inland lake that had been drained. The church features a western tower added in 1781, which complements its simple but interesting interior design.
The church houses a small organ built by Johann Claussen Schmid in 1876. This organ, originally featuring seven stops on a single manual with a pedal, underwent modifications in 1964 by Alfred Führer, who replaced the original "Doppelflöte" and "Salicional" stops with "Gedackt" 8' and "Waldflöte" 2'. The "Violonbass" 8' in the pedal was replaced by a "Quintade" 4'. Despite these changes, the organ retains much of its original character and continues to serve the church's musical needs. Over the years, further maintenance and cleaning were conducted by the Führer firm to preserve its functionality and sound.
