St. Peter (Ilvesheim)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
St. Peters Church

St. Peter is a Catholic church in Ilvesheim in the Rhein-Neckar district in northwest Baden-Württemberg . It was built between 1789 and 1790.

history

In 766 Ilvesheim was first mentioned in a document in the Lorsch Codex . It is not known since when there was a church in town. In 951, however, a churchyard in Ilvesheim was mentioned, so it can be assumed that a church already existed at that time. The Worms Synodale , a visitation report of the parishes in the Worms diocese , described in 1494 an altar of Our Lady and an altar consecrated to Saints Catherine and Nicholas.

After 1550 the Landschad von Steinach , who exercised local rule as a fiefdom from the Palatinate , introduced the Reformation . In 1575 the Palatinate implemented a change from the Lutheran to the Reformed creed. When the Palatinate church was divided at the beginning of the 18th century, the Ilvesheim church was initially assigned to the Reformed. After the protest of Freiherr von Hundheim, who meanwhile exercised local rule, an exchange with the Neckarau Martinskirche took place, so that the Ilvesheimer Peterskirche became Catholic. However, there was no parish. The pastor of the St. Aegidius Church in Seckenheim was responsible for pastoral care until a separate parish was set up in Ilvesheim again in 1747.

Since the church was dilapidated and too small, master builder Johann Jakob Rischer recommended a new building, which initially did not materialize. The old building was only demolished in 1788 and the new church was built by 1790. Only the tower remained until it collapsed and was replaced by a new one in 1817. Peterskirche was renovated in the 1950s and 1990/91. The parish belongs to the pastoral care unit "Maria Magdalena" in the city ​​dean of Mannheim , Archbishopric Freiburg .
