⛪ St. Lawrence Church in Rettel – Romanesque meets Renaissance on the Moselle
St. Lawrence Church in the French town of Rettel is an impressive example of religious architecture with roots in the 11th century. Originally built as part of a Benedictine monastery, it has been expanded several times over the years, incorporating Romanesque, Gothic, and Renaissance elements.
🕍 Particularly striking: the massive bell tower, the restored main portal, and the historic church interior with its Baroque pulpit and ornate stained glass windows.
