St. Nicholas Church, Kitzscher

Highlight • Religious Site

The oldest, architecturally and art-historically most valuable and at the same time most beautiful building in Kitzscher is the church. Apart from a few minor changes, the church stands today as it was built in 1685 in the Renaissance style. The Gothic vault in the chancel goes back to the 16th century (around 1550). In a letter of indulgence, issued on March 28, 1480 in Rome, with a handwritten note by Bishop Thilo von Merseburg, indulgence for 100 days is written out for all (residents and pilgrims) who attend church services on four specific and other church celebrations that are not mentioned individually participate and "have offered their hands to help in restoration [...]". This means that the Kitzscher Church in 1480 had in fact been in ruins for a long time, was at least irreparable and had to be rebuilt.
