Fortified church Pfahldorf

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Parish Church of St. John Baptist

The fortified church Pfahldorf is a former fortified church , today the Catholic parish church of St. Johannes Baptist in the center of Pfahldorf , a district of the Kipfenberg market in the Eichstätt district in Bavaria .

Of the former medieval fortifications in an elevated position, which presumably also served as a refuge for the local population, only the tower from the 14th century and the cemetery wall (cemetery fortifications ) have been preserved.
