    Very nice church and super idyllic area around it. A detour here is definitely worth it.

      The castle church in Meisenheim is a late Gothic hall church in Rhineland-Palatinate. It is a protected cultural asset under the Hague Convention.

      The building is a three-aisled, rib-vaulted hall church with five bays and a square antechamber, which is flanked to the south by a side chapel (burial place of the Count Palatine) and to the north by the sacristy. The actual choir is unique, the floor plan of a concealed central building with 7 sides of a decagon to be completed. In the choir head, in the fore choir yoke and in the southern side chapel, the ribbed vaults are significantly richer and more complex than in the nave, and there, by the way, different vault shapes in the southern and northern aisles. In the southern chapel there are even free-floating vaulted ribs. The vaults in the nave are supported by round pillars without templates. The tracery that changes from window to window is also varied.

      A relatively compact tower forms the western end, which continues from the third floor in an octagon with a blown spire.

      On the east side, towards the lower Amtsgasse, the church area is closed off with a high retaining wall in which there is a late Gothic access portal with staircases on the inside. Above it was the building inscription from 1479, which was however destroyed. Today this coat of arms stone has been replaced by a replica made in 1911.

        Very nice church. You should have seen it. In front of it a beautifully landscaped small park.
