Otterndorf in the historic state of Hannover has an Evangelical parish, but the church records are not yet available online at www.archion.de. So if you want to do research in the church records you will need to make an appointment at the Evangelical parish register office [ Kirchenbuchamt] in Hannover. The contact information is found on this page https://www.archion.de/de/archive-in-archion/niedersachsen/landeskirchliches-archiv-der-ev-luth-landeskirche-hannovers/ . Use the second item, the information for "Kirchenbuchamt Hannover".
If you would like to visit the church of your ancestors it is probably a good idea to let the pastor know that you are coming. Here is the contact information for the parish[es]: http://kirche-landhadeln.de/doku.php?id=kirchengemeinden:otterndorf:otterndorf It looks like they have more than on now. I would use the e-mail that begins with "kirchenbuero" ; that is the main office. If they know you are coming they can have the church open for you.
Have a wonderful trip!!!
