Dorfkirche Büste, Village church in Büste, Germany.

Dorfkirche Büste is a Romanesque hall church of rough fieldstone with an inset square choir and a stout west cross-tower, built in the first half of the 13th century. The nave's large segmental-arched windows date from an 1829 renovation, while the round-arched priest's portal survives in the sacristy. The tower carries a saddle roof with a roof turret of 1582, and a lower porch with its own tiled roof projects from the nave near the tower.

The church is a Romanesque hall building of fieldstone with a recessed square choir and a west cross tower, dated to the first half of the 13th century. The nave received large segmental-arched windows in a renovation of 1829, and the tower was topped with a saddle roof and a roof turret in 1582. The last restoration took place in 1972.

The octagonal sandstone font is dated 1521 and carries sunk reliefs of Anna selbdritt, Saint Catherine, two apostles, coats of arms and vine scrolls. Baroque figures of the twelve apostles stand along the north choir wall and in the nave, with a crucifix from the same period. In the south porch lies the figure gravestone of Hedderich von Jeetze, who died in 1588.

The church sits centrally within the village and is accessible on foot or by car, with parking available in the vicinity. Visiting during daylight hours is possible, though you should inquire locally if you wish to view the interior.

The tower's lower storey has walls 2.8 m thick, against 1.2 m in the nave and choir. A door 6 m up the south side leads through a bent passage in the masonry to the first floor, and a fieldstone stair inside the south wall reaches the second — a layout suggesting the church was meant as a refuge in times of defence.
