    The Evangelical Church of St. John is a listed church building.
    Story:
    The former village church, which was consecrated to St. John, was badly damaged in the Thirty Years' War and repaired again in 1741. Werner Narten designed the neo-Gothic transverse church built in 1888/89. It was completed by Louis Angermann. Only the choir tower, now the church tower in the west, remained of the former fortified church. The former choir arch now serves as a portal. Another portal is on the north side. The nave is crossed by two transepts. In the east there is a choir with a three-sided conclusion. The vestibule on the first floor of the tower served as a choir until 1887. The chilled cast iron bells from 1922 have now been replaced by three bronze bells cast by the Rincker bell and art foundry.
