Easy hikes and walks in Saaledurchbruch Bei Rothenburg

Came here completely unexpectedly for me

Definitely worth seeing

Heavily weathered, reason and date of construction unknown.

The nave features a horseshoe gallery. The carved pulpit on the north side of the choir and the stone baptismal font date from the time of construction. The altar table with a crucifix is located in the center of the choir. Of note is the large-scale grave monument from 1579 for Joachim von Pentz (1514–1579), leaseholder of the Friedeburg office from 1561, on the south side of the choir, which originates from the previous building. It is a three-part, two-story stone wall structure with caryatids. The central relief depicts the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, and above it is a relief of the Last Judgment. The almost life-size, fully executed figure of the praying deceased, kneeling to the right in front of the epitaph, is part of the ensemble. On the north east wall of the nave is a high-quality painting, probably created at the end of the 16th century, depicting the Fall of Man, Moses, and Golgotha in a Mannerist landscape. A wooden memorial plaque for the fallen of the First World War is attached to the south side of the nave. In the rectory garden, five sandstone gravestones from the second half of the 16th century are located; one features a relief figure of a noblewoman in period costume, another depicting two children.

The church, dedicated to St. Boniface, was rebuilt in neo-Gothic style between 1882 and 1886 to replace a previous building that had been demolished in the 1870s. It is a hall church built of red sandstone with a recessed five-sided choir, to which a small sacristy extension is attached to the east. The west tower, crowned with a pointed spire, is also flanked by extensions. The main portal is located on the west side of the tower. Restorations and repairs took place in 1970 and from 1991 to 1996. In 2015, the church tower clock from 1885 was renovated and converted from manual winding to electric operation.[2] A stone memorial plaque for the Friedeburg residents who fell in World War II is attached to the sacristy extension to the east.

The first ski jump was built in Nussgrund in 1973. Since then, the sports facility has been continually expanded and improved. Children from ages 4 to men's ski jumps train on various ski jumps in all weather conditions.
