St. Marien in Stollberg. Info: Was a hall church built in the 13th century (the "first" late Romanesque building), proven by later excavation, and was converted into a two-aisled hall church with a larger extension in the first half of the 15th century and adapted to the Gothic style at the same time. It has been a listed building since the 1970s and is dedicated to the Virgin Mary (also: Nativity of Mary).
