The Romrod Protestant Church is a listed church building located in Romrod, a small town in the Vogelsberg district (Hesse). The parishes of Romrod and Oberrod belong to the Vogelsberg deanery in the Upper Hesse provost of the Evangelical Church in Hesse and Nassau.

According to the decision made by Landgrave Ludwig VI in 1664. In 1676–80 the shell of the baroque court church was built from unplastered quarry stone by the stonemason Adelhard Henckel. The interior work was not carried out until 1688–90 under Landgrave Ernst Ludwig. The church tower in the west is supported by buttresses made of ashlar masonry. His slate-covered helmet, consisting of an octagonal top, a bell-shaped hood and an open lantern, was not completed until 1694. A choir with a three-sided end adjoins the nave of the hall church to the east. The sacristy, which appears to be a transept, was added to the north side of the choir. On the gable roof, which extends over the nave and the choir, a hexagonal roof turret rises in the choir area.

The interior, spanned by a wooden barrel vault, originally had three-story galleries. The third floor was removed in 1967/69. The patron's box from the end of the 17th century was moved from the second south gallery to the south wall next to the entrance in 1886. Only the prospectus remains of the organ built in 1685 by Georg Henrich Wagner. The organ was renovated in 1856 by Friedrich Wilhelm Bernhard. It had eight registers, a manual and a pedal. In 1915 it was replaced by an organ from the Bernhard brothers.
