Church building
The Heiligenkreutz church, which was located in the south-east of the village and which today is only evidence of the remains of the wall hidden under rubble, was a brick building on a stone foundation with a square tower and a recently closed choir. Its oldest parts date from the 14th century when a chapel was built here - mentioned in a document on December 24, 1353 - which was later incorporated into a new building. The church survived the two world wars in the 20th century, but not the post-war use as a leisure club building, which was exposed to constant decline. At the end of the 1960s, the church fell victim to a fire, presumably by arson. The remaining ruins were torn off.
