Großrudestedt has documented medieval connections to Erfurt's Marienstift: the Marienstift held the right of patronage over the church from 1322 to 1452, other Erfurt institutions owned property in the town, and a commandery of the Teutonic Order was established in the village. This makes Großrudestedt interesting for travellers interested in cultural history.
