The former Benedictine monastery in present-day Gröningen was founded in 936. The associated church was consecrated four years later by representatives of Corvey Abbey, a significant institution of the Benedictine Order at the time, which produced several notable bishops. In 1550, the monastery was dissolved and subsequently became the property of the city of Gröningen. Unfortunately, the church can currently only be viewed from the outside.

St. Moritz Church, built around 1246, is a three-aisled pillar basilica. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halberstadt#Bauwerke

The western part of the building dates back to the original Romanesque building and is unadorned and has no access in the style of a Saxon crossbar. The round-arched arcades of the central nave on heavy rectangular pillars are also part of this. Otherwise, the building was rebuilt after 1238 as a flat-roofed basilica with a transept, a separate crossing and a long, rectangular choir. A cloister was also built during this construction phase, but it was demolished in 1810. Further restorations were carried out in the 19th century, with the three eastern choir windows being replaced by two large openings in 1843 and the transept being rebuilt in 1886. In the years 1975–1982, an extensive restoration of the entire building was carried out, financed by a church building program in the GDR, and the interior design from 1886 was restored in a reduced form.

Krottorf Castle is a lowland castle that was secured by the Bode and the moats fed by it. After the original castle was destroyed in 1363, a fortified complex with buildings in the Renaissance style was not built until the 16th century and expanded by the then owner around 1890; parts of the rampart and moats are still preserved. The castle's enclosed courtyard is open to visitors. Source: Wikipedia
