St. Nicholas Church (Beuster)

Highlight • Religious Site

The three-aisled brick church was built in the late Romanesque period from the second half of the 12th century as part of a collegiate monastery and is considered one of the oldest brick buildings in the Altmark. Initially, the building did not have a church tower. In the 14th century, a massive tower decorated with panels was built over the west end of the ship.

The church in Beuster is another beautiful example of the region's Romanesque architecture. It was built in the 12th century and is one of the oldest buildings in the Altmark. Because of the church, Beuster is located on Romanik-Straße, which runs through all of Saxony-Anhalt.

Elbe High Water Gauge Beuster

Highlight • Monument

Coming from Beuster you cross the old arm of the Elbe and see the high water level of the Elbe in front of you. This level meter shows impressively how high the Elbe was once before. But the Werder settlement behind the gauge is also very nice to look at.

Rosengarten Alte Elbe

Highlight • Natural

One of the many gems in the Altmark region: a small, privately run garden with a variety of roses, rare trees, and other plants. It's not large, but very charming. There's also a courtyard café where you can relax. Open Saturdays, Sundays, and public holidays from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. Further information, impressions of the garden and café, and current information on events can be found at rosengarten-alteelbe.de.

Scharpenlohe

Highlight • Historical Site

The first written mention of Scharpenlohe comes from the year 1334, when Margrave Margrave Ludwig Arnold von Rossow awarded half of the village of Scharphenloch. Other mentions are 1472 schappenloe, 1541 scharplo, 1600 Scharffenlohe, 1608 Scharffelauge, 1687 Scharpenlohe. In 1804 the village and estate were called Scharpenlohe. From the von Rossow the property went to the von Kröcher, who after-lent it to von Barsewisch. From 1772 until after 1856 half of the village belonged to the von Barsewisch in Seehausen. In 1652 it was said: Is a lost village, which is submerged and completely surrendered to the Elbe, since the buildings are also up to the roofs in the water.
During the land reform after 1945, the property of the von Saldern family in Scharpenlohe was expropriated without compensation in favor of previously landless farmers (new farmers). (Source: Wikipedia)
