    The village church of Zerrenthin dates back to the second half of the 13th century and, together with the cemetery, is surrounded by a wall of stone without mortar. Its nave is a field stone structure made of layered granite blocks. The most striking feature is the rectangular, about 46-meter-high west tower, wider than the nave, with a timbered upper story and a copper-clad brass knuckle cup. In the tower and in the tower hall, large, pointed, stepped portals have been preserved. There was probably a sacristy on the north side of the nave, while on the south side a 17th-century porch with a volute gable was added. Both granite portals to the north and south are now blocked. The eastern gable is decorated with pointed arches and a group of three windows with three-quarter brick slats inserted. The remaining windows on the north and south sides were enlarged in the 19th century. There is a war memorial in the church cemetery for 32 fallen soldiers of the First World War who came from Zerrenthin.
    The interior of the nave has a beam ceiling. On the walls there are extensive remains of the circumferential wall cycle, which probably dates from the first half of the 16th century. The series of murals was not discovered until 1970 and restored in 1994-1996. It presents stage representations of the apostles and saints as well as basket ornaments. In addition, on the west wall there is a carved group of the Crucifixion of the old altar, which dates back to the first half of the 18th century. The gallery was already in 17/18. age built. There is a 19th century pulpit basket on the ground.
