The lower floors of the choir tower date from the Middle Ages. The top floor, which was later extended, houses the tower clock and the bell cage. The choir tower was covered with a slate-covered Welschen dome. The nave was added to the south in 1774/75.

The interior has two-story galleries on the long sides. The organ with nine registers, which was built in 1745 by Johann Rudolph[1], is located on the gallery above the pulpit altar.

The church in Ermershausen was dedicated to Saint Peter. Simon, nicknamed Peter (Rock), was a fisherman on the Sea of Galilee when he, along with his brother Andrew, was called by Jesus Christ to be a "fisher of men." According to Catholic understanding, he is the highest apostle, and the two-millennia-long line of popes—currently Leo XIV—follows his succession. In statues and paintings, Peter is almost always depicted holding two keys. This attribute refers to the biblical passage in Matthew: "I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven." (Chapter 16, Verse 19).
Peter, along with Paul, is also known as the "Prince of the Apostles"; their common feast day in the calendar of saints is June 29th.
