St. Catherine's Church

St. Catherine's Church in Middelhagen, with boulder foundations, was built around 1455. The wooden tower was created only later – according to the strict rules of the Cistercian monks, many churches were built without towers. The Catherine's altar from the Middle Ages (c.1480) is still preserved – it was probably installed here only after the Thirty Years' War, having been brought from Stralsund to Middelhagen. Another very valuable piece is a chalice dating from 1597; it is made of gilded silver.
