St. Peter and Paul is the Catholic parish church of the parish of Inzlingen in the district of Lörrach . The church, built in the 1830s, has an origins that can be traced back to the 13th century.

history

The Inzlinger church was first mentioned in a document in 1238: "predia nostra in Rieheim et Incelingin et in Hollinstein cum eisdem ecclesiis ...". Remnants of this structure are only preserved in the tower today. On the tower cornice you can see a fire-breathing basilisk in the northwest and a devil figure in the southwest, which are assigned to the 14th century.

In the years 1789 to 1790, the choir was enlarged due to the growing number of parishioners , so that it towered over the nave. Nevertheless, the main building remained structurally damaged, so that in 1810 the question of a new building or a fundamental extension arose. After architect Rebholz submitted plans in 1811 and master builder Fritz from 1825 to 1827, the church was closed on May 8, 1831, so that the demolition of the nave and choir could begin. The old tower was partially retained, integrated into the new west facade, raised by one floor and given a new roof. The first service was celebrated on October 14, 1832, while the work was still going on and was only finished on December 11, 1832. Decorations with paintings and paintings followed in the next decades. Diocese administrator Lothar von Kübel inaugurated a new high altar on October 2, 1871.

Around 1900 the choir and nave received new colored windows. In the course of the renovation in 1948, an entrance was opened on the tower and the tower hall was converted into a baptistery.

Church building

The Peter and Paul Church is located close to Dorfstrasse in Ober-Inzlingen, surrounded by residential buildings. The three-aisled nave facing east and west gables and is provided with a gable roof covered. The bell tower rises in the middle of the west facade. On the upper floor you can see the pointed arches, old, two-part and new one-part acoustic arcades. Four gable triangles rise from the tower shaft on each side - in which the clock face of the tower clock is attached to each side - to which a slim, octagonal pyramid roof is attached. The top of the roof forms a tower ball and a cross.

On both sides of the tower are the main entrances to the church on the west side. Stone figures of the apostles and church patrons Peter and Paul can be found in the ogival niches above the doors . There are side entrances in the north and south of the nave. The long sides of the main building have high, ogival closed windows. The retracted choir is a 5/8 corner and is closed by a hipped roof.

Interior and equipment

The central nave as well as the two side aisles are drawn in with a flat wooden ceiling. The rows of pillars at the transition between the naves are connected by pointed arches. The ten colored windows in the nave and two more in the choir were installed in 1966. They come from Benedikt Schauffelberger.

In the course of the renovation after the Second World War , the tower room was opened at the main portal and a baptistery was created inside. The windows represent a dove with a fiery tongue and symbolize the Holy Spirit . They come from Frey-Isele from Freiburg. On both sides of the chapel entrance are sculptures of Saints Peter and Paul. The Pietà at the entrance to Schuckart commemorates the victims of both world wars.

Behind the high altar is a crucifix with Mary and John on the wall. In front of it there is a celebration altar, on the right a pulpit. There are side altars on both sides of the triumphal arch , the left one is dedicated to Mary, the right one to Joseph. Both the baptismal font and the old pulpit were made by Jodok Friedrich Wilhelm . The painting of the choir with the theme “Peter and Paul before Martyrdom” was created by the Basel painter Bucher between 1856 and 1859.

The fourteen Stations of the Cross with subtle coloring on a golden background was created by the Freiburg artist Walther Meyerspeer and replaced older pictures in 1957.
