The church in the old center of Oberweimar can confidently be described as a real gem. The Martins Church, which was built on the foundations of earlier churches, was inaugurated in 1733. A detour is definitely worth it, especially since this highlight is also located directly on the Elisabeth path.

Saint Martin, to whom the church in Oberweimar an der Lahn is consecrated, is - next to Saint Nicholas - probably one of the most popular saints of all. The memorial day of the former officer in the Roman army is November 11th. On the night after the famous “coat sharing”, when he surrendered half his army cloak to a freezing beggar, Jesus Christ appears to him in a dream. He then converted to Christianity and was later elected Bishop of Tours (France) - initially against his will.
Many should have fond childhood memories of lantern handicrafts in kindergarten and elementary school, the evening lantern parade through the dark village / district - and of course of the delicious “Weckmann”.
