A striking point in the center of Hiltensweiler is the church of the Catholic parish of St. Dionysius with the Arnoldskapelle . Its core is Romanesque , the tower is dated to the 13th century. Its outstanding pieces of equipment are the high altar painting by the Bolognese artist Camillo Proccacini (~ 1555–1629) and the Stations of the Cross created by Andreas Brugger .

The Arnoldskapelle is the burial chapel of Arnold von Hiltensweiler and since 1793 - at that time the Langnau monastery was dissolved - also the Count of Montfort . The richly ornamented bones of St. Valentine rest in a glass shrine in the chapel .

Path of faith

The pastoral care unit Argental , an amalgamation of the Catholic parishes of Goppertsweiler , Hiltensweiler, Krumbach , Laimnau , Neukirch , Obereisenbach , Tannau and Wildpoltsweiler , created a path of faith in the respective places for its tenth anniversary in 2010. Large natural stones are set up at five stations in Hiltensweiler and the surrounding hamlets. A plaque with the logo of the pastoral care unit and a saying or verse is attached to each of these stones .
