Description
Saint-Jean-Baptiste Church is a listed monument. It is used for Catholic and Lutheran cults.
The bell tower and nave date from the 18th century, but the choir is Gothic.
The frescoes are particularly interesting, especially the one representing a mystical Mill of 1491, by an unknown author. There are angels and apostles who work the millstone. There are only thirteen churches in the world with such a mill. Eleven of them are in Germany, the other two in northern Alsace, including Betschdorf.
These frescoes were restored in 1926 by Auguste Dubois de Gresswiller.
