architecture

The church in the east of Kirchweiler Hinterhornbach is a uniform baroque church building with a central space effect and a baroque tower in the north.

The nave under a hipped roof has strongly sloping corners and a small porch on the western front. The north tower with an eight-sided upper floor has an onion dome. The sacristy is attached to the south of the choir .

The hall in the nave with smooth corners has a shallow barrel above a surrounding cornice. The retracted choir arch is shaped like a volute; the retracted one-yoke choir with a flat barrel has a round ending. In the reveals of the arched windows there is simple stucco tape work. Wolfram Köberl (1962) painted the frescoes, in the choir the Lamb of God , in the nave of the Assumption and Coronation of Mary .

Furnishing

The altar painting of the high altar represents the veneration of the miraculous image of the Mother of Good Counsel by St. James the Elder and was created by Martin Falbesoner (1765).
