The most striking landmark of Wernsdorf is the cultural castle. It is home to the Capella Antiqua Bambergensis, which regularly performs concerts of medieval music there. The castle houses a "sounding museum" with over 220 playable musical instruments from the Gothic to the Baroque periods. The building can be visited inside during concerts and themed tours; otherwise, it is usually only viewable from the outside.

The parish church of St. Giles in Amlingstadt is one of the most historically significant churches in the Bamberg district. It is considered one of the so-called Slavic churches, whose founding is attributed to a commission from Charlemagne in 793. Archaeological excavations have revealed a small Carolingian church as its predecessor. The core of the present church building dates back to the first half of the 15th century (around 1430) and was consecrated in 1442 by Bishop Anton von Rotenhan. During the Thirty Years' War, Swedish troops burned the church to the ground in 1631. Reconstruction took place around 1640/1659. To alleviate the lack of space, the Bamberg architect Adam Jakob later designed a large transept in the east, while preserving the Baroque character of the interior. While the building's structure is Late Gothic, the interior is now largely defined by Baroque furnishings from the 17th and 18th centuries. An ornate tabernacle with angels and a pelican finial adorns the chancel. The choir stalls with painted depictions of the apostles are particularly noteworthy. The church and cemetery are surrounded by a sturdy wall, which formerly served as a defensive structure and storage area in times of need.

The parish church of St. Giles in Amlingstadt is one of the oldest churches in the Bamberg district. The current building is characterized by its Baroque furnishings from the 17th and 18th centuries. However, its origins reach back much further.

I actually wanted to take a photo, but I passed the uninteresting sculpture too quickly.
