Glaubitz Church and Memorial to the Fallen of the First World War. Information: A church is first mentioned in 1319. Built in 1589, initially without a tower (the tower was added in 1741), it is one of the oldest buildings in the village. After 1918 (war memorial), a stone base was added, topped with a hewn granite block and a polished red granite obelisk bearing inscriptions.
