Church in Voigtsdorf

The Protestant church in Voigtsdorf was built from 1835 to 1855 according to plans by the building councilor Friedrich Wilhelm Buttel in the neo-Gothic style. Field stone was used in the lower part of the church , and bricks were used in the gable and in the upper floors of the tower. A special feature of the house of God is that the church tower adjoins the church to the west - otherwise it is usual for churches to face east. The bronze bell in the tower dates from 1909. Since the original interior was destroyed during the Second World War, the interior of the church is rather simple today, with a gallery and a wooden pulpit . Inside the church there are also two memorial plaques commemorating the fallen of the two world wars. Behind the church is the currently used parish cemetery. Today the church belongs to the Evangelical Lutheran parish of Kublank .

In addition to the church, the village's former school with its stable is also a listed building.
