A church dedicated to Saint Eucharius is quite rare in Franconia. The veneration of the bishop probably goes back to monks from the Gorze monastery in Lorraine who visited Sommerach. A church building in Sommerach probably existed before the 16th century, as the church was plundered during the Margraviate War. In 1560 the church building took on its current form. Julius Echter von Mespelbrunn, the Prince-Bishop of Würzburg, had the nave and choir built. The stair tower followed in 1589 or 1583. The building was first renovated in 1608. The choir was extended in 1756/1757. The church has a single-aisled nave interrupted by three window axes. The choir is recessed and adjoins the nave on three sides. The Julius Echter Tower is four stories high. It was given a pointed roof. A stair tower was added to the west. To the south of the entrance is a portal porch. It has a tail gable and ends in a shell disc. A sacristy was added to the north side of the choir in 1880. The portal has a pointed arch. In the gable is a stone tablet with the inscription: "Caspar Steinfelder, Claus Segnitz, Balthasar Schwertfeger and Steffan Wienerd had this entrance made to honor God. In the year 1616." The dates 1589 (or 1583) and 1608 are noted on the stair tower. The panel of the high altar was placed on the new altar in 1757; it shows the Adoration of the Magi. It was created in 1745 by the Austrian court painter Franz Müller and initially housed on a side altar in the Balthasar Neumann Church in the nearby Münsterschwarzach Monastery. When the monastery received a more valuable version of the painting in 1753, the painting was donated to the monastery village of Sommerach. It is presented in the style of the Neapolitan-Venetian movement and is closely based on the paintings of Wenzel Lorenz Reiner, Müller's teacher. The architecture in the background serves only as a backdrop, as does the ancient landscape in which the scene is embedded. In the center, slightly raised, is Mary with the baby Jesus on her lap. Joseph stands behind her on the left. On the right are the Three Wise Men: Melchior and Balthasar kneel, while Kaspar stands in the background. Wikipedia
The Catholic Church of St. Eucharius in Sommerach was built in its current form around 1560. However, church buildings probably existed before the 16th century.
