Dorfkirche Arensberg

The Dorfkirche Arensberg features stone masonry with noticeable joint scoring, demonstrating medieval construction techniques through its meticulously crafted walls and foundations.

The church entrance contains a brick gate from the early 16th century, while the eastern gable window remains the only original opening in the structure.

The interior houses a remarkable three-panel altar from 1485, depicting Mary with child on a crescent moon, alongside Saints Christopher and James the Elder.

Located at coordinates 52.677°N, 11.574°E, the church sits within a cemetery south of Arensberg village in the Stendal district of Saxony-Anhalt.

Medieval wall paintings from the 15th century, uncovered during renovations in the 1930s, reveal the spatial arrangement of the church before the Reformation period.
