The Hohenstein village church dates from the 13th century and is a medieval church made of granite masonry with white joints. The tower has been missing since the Thirty Years' War. The church was renovated in 1709 and 1724 and completely redesigned inside in 1868/69.
In 1909 the wooden ceilings in the nave and choir were decorated with a cassette motif by the church painter Wolter from Berlin. There are death crowns on the walls, an old local custom in Oberbarnim. The bell dates from 1707.
