Description
"Mamre. Inneres der Kirche. Inschrift vom Jubel der Stationsgründung 1933. Die Lampen brennen mit einem durch Petroleum gewonnen Gas. Hinter dem rechten Fenster ist die Sakristei, hinter dem linken nichts (es ist zwischen dem Glockenanbau und der Sakristei)." ("Mamre. The inside of the church. Inscription from the jubilation of the station's founding in 1933. The lamps burn with gas extracted from paraffin. Behind the right window the registry is situated, behind the left one there is nothing (it is located between the extension for the bell and the registry."). The photograph shows the sanctuary of the church. In the center an inscription on the wall reading '125' and 'De Heere' and a further sentence that cannot be deciphered. Four windows can be seen
two in the central back, one on the left and one on the right. Next to the right central window a small entrance that leads to the registry. Four lamps are hanging from the ceiling.
