The smallest wooden church in Germany

Short facts

  • Oberharz am Brocken OT Elend

If you take the meaning of "Kirchenschiff" (church ship) literally, you can believe that the cosy wooden churches of the Upper Harz are able to float...

The smallest wooden church in Germany, built in neo-Gothic style in 1897, is located in Elend as a counterpart to the largest wooden church in Germany in Clausthal-Zellerfeld.
