    Beatae Mariae Virgins - Marienkirche built in 1614 was restored about 20 years ago and the angels on the organ can now play their instruments again, which many did not know for years.

        The church Beatae Mariae Virginis zu Hornburg is the oldest evangelical church building in the Brunswick region. It was built by Paul Francke after the model of the main church BMV in Wolfenbüttel. In its simpler construction compared to Wolfenbüttel, the Hornburg church represents the "bourgeois" type of an early Protestant sermon church. The furnishings of the church are of national importance, in particular the altar and the pulpit, not least the baroque wall paintings, which have been uncovered again and are extremely rare in northern Germany. The artistic, nine-part baroque organ brochure is of outstanding importance. The showpiece, decorated with large angel figures and magnificent acanthus leaves, was created in 1707 by the Hornburg master carpenter Georg Froböse (1666-1722) for an organ built in 1710. Unique in Germany are the five angel figures in the organ brochure, which symbolically play their instruments as soon as the organ begins to make music.
