The village church in Wilkendorf, a late Gothic field stone building with a semicircular east end and a recessed rectangular west tower with a hipped roof, was built around 1250. Inside there is a wooden beam ceiling and two late Gothic bells. The granite font from approx. 1150 comes from the previous building and is therefore one of the oldest in Brandenburg. The von Pfuel noble family has left their mark both inside and outside with patronage stalls and their own manor cemetery. Wilkendorf belonged to the von Pfuel family from 1536 to 1905.

The church is not that easy to visit. After registering by telephone, you have to get the key from Pastor U.-P. Get Eckert.
