The Apollensdorf Fieldstone Church is a well-preserved example of Romanesque architecture in Lutherstadt Wittenberg. It is located in the Apollensdorf district, directly on the Elbe Cycle Path, and is one of the oldest buildings in the region. It was probably built between 1200 and 1230. At that time, it was the only stone building in the village, while all other structures were made of wood. The church is constructed of fieldstone and consists of a three-part structure with a nave, a recessed choir, and a semicircular apse. The west gable is topped by a simple wooden turret with sound windows. Typical of the Romanesque style are the semicircular apse window and the round-arched portal on the south side, which is particularly emphasized by its stepped frame. Over the centuries, the church has been altered several times. The windows were enlarged in the Baroque style in the 17th century, bringing more light into the interior. The interior is simple but contains some remarkable pieces. Of particular note is the Baroque pulpit altar with a central oil painting depicting Jesus carrying the cross. The baptismal font dates from 1667, and the accompanying brass baptismal bowl bears the date 1669. The pulpit is decorated with floral ornaments. The church is open daily from April to October from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Regular services are held during this time, including special events such as baptism services on the Elbe River. From November to March, visits are only possible by prior appointment. Group tours can be arranged through the parish office. Today, the church is a popular place to rest and reflect for cyclists and hikers traveling along the Elbe Cycle Path. It is also used as a venue for small concerts or devotional services. Its simple beauty, tranquil setting, and centuries-old history make it a worthwhile destination for those interested in cultural history.

Wörlitz Park is very beautiful, but not recommended for cycling, as bicycles are prohibited. You'll have to park and walk, hoping your bike is still there after the tour.
