Who was Vicelin? Vicelin (c. 1086–1154) was a Christian missionary and later Bishop of Oldenburg in Holstein. He is considered the "Apostle of the Wagrians and Holsteins" because he evangelized the Slavic and Saxon populations of present-day Schleswig-Holstein in the 12th century.

Today's Significance With its 40-meter-high tower, the Vicelin Church is visible from afar and remains the spiritual center of the community today. Modern stained-glass windows, a richly decorated interior, and the park-like church grounds make it a cultural and spiritual attraction.

Historical Origins St. James's Church in Bornhöved was consecrated in 1149 by Bishop Vicelin in the Romanesque style and has dominated the town center ever since. Archaeological finds even indicate a predecessor chapel dating back to around 980, making it one of the oldest religious buildings in the region.

The chapel and cemetery belong to the Vicelin Church in Neumünster. Vicelin played a significant role there: in 1127, he founded the "Novum Monasterium" (New Münster) monastery in Neumünster and from there carried out missionary work in Holstein and Wagria.

You can buy beers. Even on weekends :)

A wooden cross, approximately 3 meters tall, stands here on a raised meadow near Vierer Weg. From here, you have a wonderful view over Lake Schmalensee.

The ancient copper beech tree at the pathside is an imposing sight. Its multi-veined root system is also striking.
