    This church "is the fourth church on the same site. It [...] The church building was added to the existing tower in 1747. [...] In front of the bell tower (back of the church) is the statue of Saint John Nepomuk. He is not only considered a bridge saint, but also the patron saint of Kirrweiler winegrowers. This figure is said to have originally stood in front of the Venninger Gate. He sits enthroned on a sandstone base from 1765."

    This church has a very beautiful forecourt: right in front on the right is a very old tree (natural monument) and after that a memorial for fallen soldiers from 1914 - 18 (with a beautiful camellia). - A scallop shell and information boards about the Way of St. James are located on the rear, right side of the building.
