A great bike and hiking trail leads here to the church in Bargstedt. The church was built in 1801 and consecrated on September 21, 1802 by Mr. Pastor Kerstens. The church was initially without a tower and had a bell tower in the churchyard. A war memorial in the churchyard. The church tower, built in 1867, was demolished during the renovation in 1954/58 due to considerable defects. On December 14, 1958, the new tower with three bells was consecrated. Until 1972, several renovation works took place. In 1973, the church received a fourth bell. In 1993, a new community center was built and in 2008, the altar wall was redesigned. On September 5, 2010, the parish celebrated its 777th anniversary. The church is dedicated to St. Primus.

An old half-timbered house on Harsefeld's Marktstraße, directly opposite the Dante ice cream parlor and on August Hillert Platz. Today, the Don Camillo restaurant, with its highly recommended menu, is located there.

Where peace and unity reign, the whole house is adorned. This beautiful old half-timbered house is located on Marktstraße in Harsefeld. Today it houses a very well-run restaurant and also includes residential units. A visit is highly recommended! 👍🏼

The beautiful spa town of Harsefeld No matter which direction you approach Harsefeld from, the church is always visible from afar. Harsefeld's St. Mary's and St. Bartholomew's Church shapes the townscape and the surrounding park. Inside our church, you will be captivated by a wonderfully bright space. The renovation in 2014 further emphasized this simple character of the church. However, the greatest treasure of the church is not its architectural features, but rather the people who visit it. It is the people who make it a beautiful place of fellowship. The special quality of churches in general is not simply their architecture, but above all, here in Harsefeld, it is a space filled with prayer for 1000 years.

Harsefeld Here you'll find the Amtshof (now a library, among other things), the monastery church of St. Mary and St. Bartholomew, the museum, and the idyllic monastery park, whose history dates back to the 9th century. Harsefeld tour guides will be happy to take you on a relaxing yet interesting walk through this "Garden of Europe." The monastery park was completely redesigned in 2006 and, together with the Amtshof, museum, and church, now offers a beautiful backdrop for concerts, markets, and other events, as well as simply for strolling and relaxing. The monastery park was one of the partner projects of the igs 2013 in the Hamburg Metropolitan Region! Our tip for you: You can find more information about the excavations in the Harsefeld monastery park in the documentary "Fear of Death and the Devil. The History of Superstition" from the ZDF History series.
