Tips from the Community

Der Bornschisser
July 8, 2025, St. Crucis Church and Former Cistercian Nunnery (Ziesar)

Built between 1200 and 1240, the exact date of construction of this Romanesque fieldstone church on a cruciform floor plan is unknown – Ice Age boulders were used locally. St. Crucis features Gothic-style alterations, including the choir apse in the east and the organ loft. Bricks were used for the first time during these construction projects, and these bricks were subsequently used extensively in the Margraviate of Brandenburg during the so-called Brick Gothic period.

Open church = sympathy point!

This is indeed a very mystical place and it is advisable to explore the area a little more extensively, as there are still many remains of walls to be discovered apart from the actual fieldstone walls of the church.

The church is unfortunately closed, but in front of it stands a natural monument, an old linden tree.

A former tower of the city wall, outlined by stones in the path, we take a detour through the town's alleys to St. Mary's Church, whose origins date back to the early 13th century. We're surprised to find an organ museum inside, with organs from the last three centuries, the smallest being a table-top portable. A little further on, we cross the market square and visit the tourist information office; there's something to read everywhere in town. The niche portals are striking. We reach the Wiesenburger Bridge again, cross the city moat, and walk parallel to the main street between the trees.

With stones sketched in the way, a former tower of the city wall, we take a detour through the streets of the village to the church of St. Marien, whose origin dates back to the beginning of the 13th century. Are we surprised, inside is an organ museum, with organs from the last 3 centuries, the smallest a table portative.
