The parish church of St. Peter (also popularly known as the Bergstrasse Cathedral) was completed in 1904 after three years of construction. However, the origins of the church are considerably older. A previous building is documented for the year 755, which was probably part of a refuge castle built around 700 by Franks, which extended to today's Great Market. de.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Peter_(Heppenheim)
A building worth seeing inside and out.
