Saint John the Baptist (also Johannes Baptist), to whom this Bösenzell church is consecrated, is - like Saint Joseph - a man on the threshold from the Old to the New Testament. His parents are Zacharias and Elisabeth, after the proclamation of the Incarnation through her, the Mother of God visits her relative Elisabeth, who will give birth to a son in old age, namely John the Baptist. He is six months older than Jesus and is considered to be his forerunner / pioneer. He lives in the desert, preaches the repentance of sins to the Jewish population and baptizes them in the Jordan, there Jesus also comes to be baptized, and he is filled with the Holy Spirit, who comes down on him from heaven.

The feast day of John the Baptist (Baptist) in the saints calendar is on June 24th, exactly six months before 'Christmas Eve'.

History and Architecture:

"... The parish was already a parish in 1148. The stately west tower made of Baumberger sandstone dates from the 14th century. The upper floor of the tower is late Gothic. The neo-Gothic nave with Art Nouveau elements was built from Ibbenbüren sandstone from 1913 to 1916. ..."
