St. Pankratius Church (Bornstedt)

Highlight • Religious Site

At the beginning of the 20th century, none other than Empress Auguste Viktoria took on the task of restoring the St. Pankratius Church in Bornstedt, which was built around 1450, and had a neo-Gothic nave added to the medieval west tower. This is probably why the church is so large and, thanks to the imperial commitment, it was given a remarkable interior: a Renaissance altar with Art Nouveau motifs, carvings on the pews, paintings on the barrel vault and on the gallery.

Old gravestones in the churchyard

Highlight • Historical Site

The baroque gravestones in the churchyard and the churchyard wall also belong to the church of St. Pankratius as monuments.

Historic Boundary Stone

Highlight • Monument

Historical path or boundary stone. Its actual meaning can no longer be recognized. On the front it looks like a crown (reference to Saxony). Another one stands opposite.

Ackertal Quarry

Highlight • Structure

The stones for the monastery probably come from here.

Historic Transformer Tower Bornstedt

Highlight • Monument

Six transformer towers in the Mansfeld region, of which there were once hundreds, are now safe to exist. Not because they are still important for the energy supply, but because they provide shelter for rare animal species. Owls have settled in the old transformer tower in Bornstedt, while bats live elsewhere. In addition, the tower on the main street is such a striking part of the townscape that it is listed as a cultural monument in the state of Saxony-Anhalt. Electricity once reached the top of the towers via overhead lines at 20,000 volts, and the transformers in the tower reduced the voltage to 400 volts.

The Little Village Library

Highlight • Structure

In this telephone booth, which has been converted into a free "library", you can stock up on reading material or make books you have finished reading available to others.

War Memorial Bornstedt

Highlight • Monument

The war memorial in front of the house at Hauptstraße 1 is intended to commemorate those who died in the wars of 1864, 1866 and 1870/1871. Additional stones were later added for those who died in the First and Second World Wars.
