    History of the church on the Hennstedter Hang! It has stood there for 800 years and is dedicated to Saint Secundus, a remarkable name for a church. Secundus was a Roman soldier who converted to Christianity and died as a martyr. The church, built of sturdy fieldstone, was probably completed in 1280 during the Romanesque period. Over time, it was expanded to the east and west and is located on a historic site where storm surges from the North Sea and Eider River once reached land.

    A church has stood on the Hennstedter slope to the Töschenniederung for 800 years. It is dedicated to Saint Secundus. Secundus was a Roman soldier who came to the Christian faith. He was sunk in a tar barrel and died a martyr. St. Secundus in Hennstedt is exactly at the highest point where the storm surge from the North Sea and the Eider reached the country.
