The church is right on Lotharstrasse, a little ugly right on the street

The "Little Cross Church" in Hermannsburg, built in 1887, is a Lutheran church of the Independent Evangelical Lutheran Church (SELK) and a well-known landmark of the Lüneburg Heath. It is located on Lotharstraße and is open to visitors during the day from May to October as a "House of Silence." The church is located directly on the "Way of St. James through the Lüneburg Heath" pilgrimage route and invites pilgrims, cyclists, and guests to pause for a moment of prayer and reflection. In addition to its spiritual function, the Little Cross Church also serves as a cultural center, hosting regular events and concerts.
