    The church of St. Stephen in Egestorf is an open church and it is well worth seeing from the inside.

    Next to the side entrance is a bronze plate in honor of Martin Luther.

      Pretty, old church whose interior doesn't have to hide either. The altar in particular is coherent and one feels transported back in time here.

        In the center of Egestorf, surrounded by linden trees, is St. Stephen's Church, a typical Heath half-timbered church with a free-standing wooden bell tower. It is very popular as a wedding and baptism church, and concerts are often held here. Especially the series "Music in Old Heath Churches" - launched in 1972 by Cantor Johann Christmas in the St. Stephanus ChurchGrote - is visited by many music lovers from July to September. Every year at the end of August, the parish celebrates "Pagan Sunday" with a wreath-laying ceremony at the cenotaph to commemorate the fallen and missing from the two world wars. The interior of the church is decorated with freshly bound pagan wreaths.
