Only a rest area is still usable here. Apart from that, one can only guess what used to happen here.

The Leuckfeld chronicle (1509) shows that Pope Julius mentioned the church in Heteborn. A church had previously stood in the same place. The church was completely destroyed in 1636 in a fire and looting of the site. In 1714, the cathedral provost of Halberstadt promised a new building, which was completed the following year. The sponsors were "the royal majesty, the ducal Magdeburg and Halberstadt princely house". However, the original altar, a gift from the Neustadt church in Quedlinburg (today's Nikolaikirche), was installed elsewhere, and the origin of the Heteborn altar is not entirely clear. The consecration took place on the Sunday after Trinity by Pastor Lankfeld (Gröningen). Source: Wikipedia
