Tips from the Community
Die Heideschänke is a recommendation for a restaurant with very good cuisine. A hikers' rest stop in the beer garden is also so beautiful in nature.

The centerpiece of the furnishings is a late Gothic carved altar from around 1500, which was restored in 1996/97. In the predella, it shows a painted depiction of the Veil of Veronica; in the shrine, a crescent Madonna with Saints Martin and Nicholas on either side. Each wing depicts four saints, whose attributes are partly no longer original, which is why the dating is unclear. On the left are a saint with an ax and Catherine, as well as Cyriacus and Ursula, on the right are Dorothea and Rochus, as well as Barbara and Peter. Of the tracery with five saints, only four pinnacles and a small crucifix above the shrine have been preserved. The octagonal baptismal font from the 17th century shows a pewter baptismal bowl with the year 1653. The small organ with a neo-Gothic prospect and free-standing console is a work from around 1840, probably by Ludwig Weineck or Nicolaus Schrickel.

The simple Romanesque hall church is particularly noteworthy for its carefully executed painting, which was probably created around the year 1200. The hall was extended at the end of the 15th century, and the windows were enlarged at the beginning of the 19th century. The murals have been uncovered since 1997. The towerless building has an apse and a half-hipped roof. The Romanesque part consists of bog iron ore, the extensions to the west were made of rubble stone and brick. On the north and south sides there are (now walled-up) round-arched portals and round-arched windows, in the apse five Romanesque windows, three of which have been widened and two walled up. Inside, the building is covered with a flat roof; simple galleries are installed on three sides, with simple loges from around 1700 on the north and south sides. Under the late Gothic room version with consecration crosses, unusually well-preserved murals in a fine zigzag style have been found in the apse and on the southern wall of the hall. They show the Maiestas Domini with evangelist symbols and probably an extended Deesis in the apse, below prophets and curtain painting. There is an Atlas at each of the corner points of the apse. The Archangel Michael and the Crucifixion are depicted on the eastern wall of the hall. Source https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorfkirche_Battaune
