From the outside the church looks really pretty. Inside certainly worth a visit.

The chapel is a plastered hall with two bays. The choir closes on three sides. The entrance is on the south side. According to an inscription on the leg of the choir, it was renewed in 1696. The relief plate on the west side with a depiction of St. Walburga, the patroness of the monastery of the same name in Soest, is the only remaining reference to the Augustinian convent Annenborn in Waltringhausen, which was absorbed by this monastery in 1408. The beamed ceiling inside is stuccoed. The colored windows were donated in 1868.

The St. Lucia Chapel, which forms the center of the village, was built in 1882 and is supported by donations from the township.

The origins of the castle go back to the 14th century. The moated castle complex consists of a manor house and farm buildings on two islands connected by a bridge. The present mansion dates from the 17th century.
