    The church is a so-called middle church with arms extended to the north and south.
    After the demolition of the old church, this half-timbered building was started in 1707 and repeatedly expanded over the years. The church does not have a belfry but an adjacent belfry. The three steel bells were cast in 1909 and ring out twice a day.

      The castle in Stiege was probably built by the Counts of Blankenburg as a hunting lodge and to protect the mining industry in the area and was first mentioned in 1329.
      The wooden church, stave church, in Stiege "To the Help of God" has a ducal box and a wonderfully sounding "Engelhard organ". The church used to be south-east of the village and not in the middle of the village. It was repeatedly damaged by vandalism there. An association was then founded, which set itself the goal of growing the church there and rebuilding it in the village of Stiege. However, since it was a stave church, i.e. a wooden church, this was not so easy and also very expensive found an architect to carry out this task.The approval of grants was approved, the rest of the costs were financed by the association and by donations.The church has a bell house next to it.The church with the castle next to it is a very good photo opportunity.
