The village church of Schkortleben is only preserved as a ruin. Its former appearance is documented by an information board with historical photos set up by the ruins. She reports that the church can be assumed to be in 1580 for the first time, since an entry in the church register has been preserved from that year. As early as 1680 it is said to have been in a state of disrepair, which is not surprising given the location in the flooded Saale-Aue and the wars of the 16th and 17th centuries.
