The Brucke-Rothenburg ferry provides convenient access to the other side of the Saale. The ferryman is very friendly and chatty. The ferry operates Monday to Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Further information is available at: fähren-wettin-löbejün.de/brucke-rothenburg-oeffnungszeiten-preise

St. Marien Church (Rothenburg, Saalekreis)

Highlight • Religious Site

St. Marien is the Protestant church in the town of Rothenburg in the Saalekreis in Saxony-Anhalt, which belongs to the municipality of Wettin-Löbejün. It belongs to the Wettin parish association in the Halle-Saalkreis church district of the Evangelical Church in Central Germany. The church is registered as a monument in the local register of monuments under registration number 094 55151
The church, located on a ridge on the banks of the Saale, was built between 1840 and 1844 based on a design by Friedrich August Stüler in the neo-Romanesque arched style from the local reddish sandstone. It probably had a previous building built in the 13th century.
It is a squat rectangular building with a semicircular windowless apse in the east and a slender square west tower. Canopy-like open entrance halls flank the tower on the north and south sides. At the corners of the ship there are flat pillars crowned with pinnacles.
