The Protestant parish church is a listed church building in Beedenkirchen , a district of the Lautertal community in the Bergstrasse district ( Hesse ).

The late Gothic building from 1477 was renewed in 1624. The small nave with a five-sided closed choir the width of the ship is structured by tracery windows. The west tower is crowned with a pointed helmet. The west gallery was built in 1712.

organ

The organ of the church was on 10 November 1854 by the Mainz organ builder Bernhard Dreymann completed (1788-1854) and at the second Advent 1854 consecrated . Due to the only conditionally suitable installation site, a separate organ loft had to be purchased, which involved considerable costs. It has 9 registers (including pedal coupler and valve slide) distributed on a manual and pedal . It is the smallest or the last instrument built by Dreymann.
