The Wiek Church, the construction of which began around 1400 with the choir, is one of the largest hall churches on the island. In addition to the late medieval and baroque wall paintings, several epitaphs and pastor portraits, there is the mighty altar (Michael Möller 1747/48) with the almost life-size figures of the evangelists Johannes and Mose on one side and Aaron and Paul on the other. The most important piece of equipment is the equestrian statue of St. George from the first half of the 15th century, which was donated by the Pomeranian Duchess for the consecration of the church. The bell tower was built around 1600.
The historic Grüneberg-Mehmel (1826/1876) was restored in 2011 and has been playable again since then.
