    Evangelical Lutheran listed St. Christopher's Chapel.
    The beginnings of the chapel made of quarry stones date back to around the year 1000. It was built in three construction phases, which is clear from the different shapes of the windows. The oldest part in the west dates from around the turn of the first millennium. It was covered with a flat roof and had a square window above the image of Christopher, which is located on the north side of the chapel and dates from the time the church was built. The entrance was to the south. The width of the building corresponded to the current width of the gallery. The altar was below the image of St. Christopher. In the early 14th century, the chapel was expanded to the east in the second construction phase and the walls were raised at the same time. Around a hundred years later, the sacred building received its current floor plan. The church furnishings include the altar with the cafeteria, which was placed on the east side, and the pulpit, built around 1600. The choir received two windows and a three-lane tracery window in the east wall. The last change came with the relocation of the entrance from south to west in 1841 and the addition of the roof tower covered with a pointed pyramid roof, which rises to the west from the gable roof of the nave. The old cast church bell was also hung in it.

      A little off the Leineradweg, which is worth a detour
