The Worin village church, a field stone building, was built in the 15th century and later changed to the baroque style. The small three-axis hall building with a small retracted west tower is located in the middle of the village. The church furnishings are interesting, such as a pair of pewter candlesticks from 1993, the bronze bell from the 16th century and 3 tombstones that are reminiscent of members of the von Hohendorff family. Today the sacred building is a monument of the Märkisch-Oderland district, as is the former Worin manor house, a single-storey plastered building with 9 axes and a crooked hip roof, which dates from the late 18th century and is now privately owned.Source: amt-seelow-land.de/verzeichnis/objekt.php?mandat=52844

On the north and east walls of the church there are three epitaphs (lavishly designed grave slabs) from the end of the 17th and the first third of the 18th century, which commemorate members of the Hohendorff family. On the small hill around the church there used to be the parish cemetery. When this was no longer sufficient, a new cemetery was set up on Seestrasse.
