The church is named after Saint Andrew, a disciple of Jesus. It was first mentioned in documents in 1140, but according to current knowledge it already existed before 1070, burned down in 1559 and a new church was built on the foundations within the next 40 years. It is one of the oldest churches in Dithmarschen. Since 2008, extensive renovation work has been carried out on the exterior and interior of the traditional church, which was completed in 2010. The church was reopened on October 3, 2010. In autumn 2013, the bells, which include the oldest bell in Dithmarschen, received new clappers, a new control system and some new motors. In summer 2014, the Walcker organ was extensively renovated. https://www.kirche-weddingstedt.de/unsere-kirche/st-andreas-kirche-weddingstedt/

In the café you can enjoy a cup of coffee and homemade cake, and maybe you can even fit a regional speciality from the farm shop into your jersey pocket.
