    One of the oldest churches in and around Halle, the baptismal font is 900 years old and the ceiling painting is special. You can find out more about a registered tour.
    The priest is very nice and you can sometimes meet her on the Beautiful Raven Island.

      Saint Nicholas, Bishop of Myra, to whom this Böllberg church is dedicated, is - along with Saint Martin - probably one of the most popular saints of all. Almost every child in Germany - and far beyond - is probably familiar with his day of remembrance, December 6th.
      On the eve of this day, the children used to put their shoes and boots in front of the door - which were of course cleaned with great care - so that Saint Nicholas could fill them with gifts during the night. In more agricultural areas, it was also customary for children to provide a small donation of food for the donkey, St. Nicholas' riding animal (according to another tradition, it was a gray horse).
