history
Today's Protestant Church was originally consecrated to St. Simon Peter and was subordinate to the Rothenkirchen Monastery . The Romanesque choir tower in the east was built in the 13th century and has a ribbed vault inside with foliage capitals. The nave was probably built after 1629. It has a magnificent Romanesque stepped portal in the west , which is similar in style to the west choir of Worms Cathedral and the north portal of St. Andreas in Worms. The organ front in the church was created around 1725.
