The 300-year-old Baroque church is worth seeing. Parts of the Romanesque predecessor can still be found there. The late Gothic carved altar from the early 16th century with its wooden figures is noteworthy. https://www.zeitz.de/Leben/Ortschaften/index.php?object=tx,3429.1.1&ModID=9&FID=3429.341.1&NavID=3429.275&La=1
