The church ruins and their remaining arches have been cleared of vegetation and largely secured since 2021 with youth construction huts and work assignments under expert guidance.

In Steinfurth there is a remarkable ensemble consisting of a funerary chapel and a church ruin. The chapel served as a family burial ground for the Bismarck-Bohlen family. On the site are a number of interesting old grave cheeks, some of which grow into the ground. There is also a ruined church, of which only parts of the church tower and the triumphal arch are present.
