    Destruction and reconstruction
    In his war diary, Pastor Oskar Hahn wrote in 1945:
    "On April 10th In 1945, Weigenheim was conquered by the Americans after hours of bombardment. ”This caused numerous fires. The church also burned out completely. Two German soldiers who had moved into an observation post in the tower were killed.


    The rebuilding of the Church in a slightly different form began with the currency changeover. The inauguration took place on June 11, 1950. Two new bells and a new organ were bought. The willingness of the community “fer unner Kerch” to sacrifice was great and the pastor wrote: “We always had so much money that we could pay the bills.”
