Memorial stone on the street in front of the church/cemetery This church was built from 1837-1839 in the classicist style. The builder was Mr. Späthe from Langenleuba-Niederhain. Inside the church there is a very beautiful baptismal font made of marble. The organ was installed in 1839 by G.M. Böhme from Zeitz. The beautiful crucifix on the altar was carved by Mr. Gleitsmann from Langenleuba-Niederhain. The bells had to be replaced after both the First World War in 1925 and the Second World War in 1950. The church tower and the outer facade were renovated in 1993-1994. In 2000/2002 the organ was given a general overhaul and the organ facade was installed.

Waldenburg Castle received its current appearance through an extensive renovation under Prince Otto Victor II of Schönburg-Waldenburg (1882–1914) between 1909 and 1912. Under the overall construction management of the Royal Saxon Court Building Councilor Gustav Frölich (1859–1933), parts of the building from the 19th century were gutted and all rooms and their functions were rearranged according to contemporary requirements. Technically, Gustav Frölich equipped the castle with the most modern achievements for the period around 1910, such as complete electrification, telephone, central steam heating, hot water system, complex ventilation, dumbwaiter, separate fire water pipe and central vacuum cleaner system.

The castle complex has its origins in a castle that was built as a base for the colonization of the Pleißenland between 1165 and 1172. From this founding phase, the lower part of the keep, made of dark humpback blocks, has been preserved to this day. In connection with the Civil Revolution, the Renaissance castle was looted and completely burned down by angry demonstrators on April 5, 1848.
