The Elisabeth Staircase in Hofheim is the exterior staircase of the parish church of St. Peter and Paul, where a figure of St. Elizabeth descends from a sculpture, symbolizing the community's outreach to the people. The sculpture of St. Elizabeth, the patron saint of the parish, was consecrated in November 2023 and is intended to serve as a model and program for the parish.

Origins:

The church, a listed Roman Catholic house of worship, has been a central part of the town of Hofheim for several centuries. The first church structures there date back to the 14th century.

Architectural History:

• The Gothic chancel and tower date from the late 15th century and have been preserved to this day.

• The spire was demolished in 1923 and later rebuilt in the Neo-Baroque style.

• Between 1926 and 1927, the nave was rebuilt and enlarged (Neo-Baroque).

• The current church building, with its nave, transept, and new chancel, was constructed during this period.
