Description

The church still has a sloped-roof bell tower and the massive Gothic chancel dates back to the 13th century while the base of the tower dates from the 12th century. They are well integrated into the Gothic Revival style nave, built according to the ideas of the curator of Historical Monuments Johann Knauth. It was consecrated in July 1914 by Archbishop Zorn Bulach, the Coadjutor bishop of Strasbourg, during one of the last holidays before the tragedy of the First World War. Text inspired by Marc Glotz.
