history
Both the church and the castle were first mentioned in a document during the time of the Staufer emperors (1138 to 1250). Monks from the Posa Monastery in Zeitz built a chapel in the "Forest on the Hucke" , which was rebuilt over time according to needs and expanded to become a castle church .
After the political change
In 2001 and 2002 the restoration of the baroque altar and pulpit was financed by the KiBa Foundation. On Friday, May 8, 2014, on the occasion of the 850th anniversary of the castle church, the press reported with pride that the restoration of the church and the altar and pulpit had been completed.
