St. Martin's Church (Ediger)

Due to its design and furnishings, the parish church of St. Martin, as a late Gothic hall church, is one of the most important sacred buildings on the Moselle. The tower crowned with the most decorated Gothic slate helmet enjoys special appreciation.

Saint Martin, to whom Ediger Church is dedicated, is probably one of the most popular saints of all, along with Saint Nicholas. The memorial day of the former officer in the Roman army is on November 11th. On the night after the famous "dividing of the cloak", when he leaves 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 are likely to have fond childhood memories of making lanterns in kindergarten and elementary school, the evening lantern procession through the dark village / district - and of course the delicious "Weckmann".

Late Gothic hall church from the 15th century, tower from 1506. The spire is the most "richest" of Christianity. Attractions inventory.
