    The Evangelical Church of St. John the Baptist in Buchholz is one of the four so-called Weser churches, along with Ovenstädt, Heimsen and Windheim. The originally Romanesque baptistery made of Porta sandstone was built at the end of the 12th century in place of a previous wooden church. The massive tower and numerous alterations date from the Gothic period. A jewel of Romanesque and Gothic sacred architecture! And a wonderful place for rest and reflection. The church on the Weser Cycle Path is open daily from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. during the summer months (entrance on the south side). I have been here countless times for almost 20 years and I am still fascinated by this beautiful village church.🌞🚲🙋‍♂️

      What a stable, Romanesque church. The stone walls are massive and impressive. In the shadow of the church there are enough benches to take a break and an information board about the history of the place.
