The stately 17-meter-high transverse tower, built of rubble masonry, is reminiscent of a settlement that was important 800 years ago and became a ghost town as early as the Middle Ages. Further evidence of this is provided by a partially preserved hollow way and the remains of a watermill that burned down in 1843. The Nordhusen ruin is a widely visible sign of the former settlement of Nordhusen. It was first documented in 1218, but fell into disuse by the end of the 15th century as the focus of settlement shifted to Hundisburg. Only the Romanesque-built west transverse tower of the former village church has survived to this day. The ruin is one of the west transverse towers typical of the Magdeburger Börde. Its ground plan dimensions of 11.80 m by 5.20 m and its height of 17 m indicate that Nordhusen was once an important place. The Nordhusen ruin is a stop on the "Straße der Romanik" (Route of the Romanesque). The historically significant and touristically popular cultural route connects 88 buildings in 72 locations in Saxony-Anhalt and is integrated into the European network "Transromanica". https://www.haldensleben.de/Kultur-Tourismus/Tourismus/Sehensw%C3%BCrdigkeiten/
