Unser Lieben Frauen

The church structure exhibits stone walls, a square choir, and a west tower, reflecting the architectural principles of Romanesque construction methods.

Originally built in the 12th century as the primary church of Ziemitz village, the structure remained outside city fortifications after Ziemitz merged with Möckern in 1207.

The building stands as a testament to religious architecture along the Romanesque Road, a route connecting medieval religious structures in Saxony-Anhalt.

Located at Möckernitzer Damm 6 in Möckern, the church ruins remain accessible to visitors throughout the day with guided tours available upon request.

During the Napoleonic Wars between 1799 and 1815, the church served as both a powder magazine and a prisoner detention facility.
