    The current church in Anzefahr was built in 1711. It is dedicated to the Archangel Michael.
    The statues of saints in the church all come from the old baroque church with the exception of the statue of Mary in the front right and the statue of Joseph on the left next to the gallery on the wall. Both figures were originally not colored and were only colored when the church was renovated in 2001. The Sacred Heart statue is similar to the statue in Stausebach and dates from the same period.

    This church in Anzefahr was dedicated to the Archangel Michael. The name (coming from Hebrew) means "Who is like God?". He is often depicted - on paintings or as a statue - with a flaming sword, and occasionally a lance. Michael is - together with Raphael, Gabriel and Uriel - one of the four archangels who (according to human imagination) occupy the highest rank in the heavenly hierarchy of angelic beings. Their common feast day in the saints calendar is September 29th.
