Parts of the town church of St. Martini date back to the 13th century. After falling into disrepair, it was rebuilt at the beginning of the 15th century and consecrated in 1418. However, today's nave was essentially built in the years 1901-1906

St. Severus Church Krottorf

Highlight • Religious Site

The village church of St. Severus, which is only a little older than the castle, dates back to a late Gothic quarry stone building from the 15th/16th century. The current square west tower dates from 1704 and replaced the bell tower that burned down in 1693. In 1713 the vault of the church was also renewed with beams and floorboards. In the period after 1732 the church received a new altar and a new pulpit in the Baroque style. In 1751 "everything" including the sky was "painted brightly" and in 1766 a new organ was installed.
The Krottorf church received its current appearance through a renovation in 1836. The structural remodeling carried out in the course of the renovation of the church roof included raising the surrounding walls by 5½ feet and enlarging the windows, which were given high pointed arches in keeping with the character of the building. The current interior of the church was completely redesigned in 1888/89 by Gustav Kuntzsch, Institute for Church Art, Wernigerode, and replaced the baroque furnishings.

In the interior of the Krottorf church there are gravestones from the 16th and 17th centuries.

Burg Krottorf

Highlight • Castle

Krottorf Castle is a lowland castle that was secured by the Bode and the moats fed by it. After the original castle was destroyed in 1363, a fortified complex with buildings in the Renaissance style was not built until the 16th century and expanded by the then owner around 1890; parts of the rampart and moats are still preserved. The castle's enclosed courtyard is open to visitors.
