The origins of St. Michael's Church date back to around 1300. It was renovated several times, but was always in a state of disrepair. In 1934, the church was replaced by a new building.

With its striking tower, sandstone walls, and views of the Jagst Valley, it is not only a place of worship but also a landmark of the city. Inside, visitors will find a simple, dignified atmosphere with historic elements, including a baptismal font, an altar, and ornate windows.

The church is named after the Archangel Michael—a symbol of protection and strength.
