After Romanesque frescoes from the 11th century were found in this old St. Michael's Church in 1892, the Württemberg finance administration bought the old church. In 1896, the parish under Pastor Eduard Hauber built a new St. Michael's Church about 200 m to the southeast.
The building plan for the new church was drawn up by government architect Pohlhammer from Stuttgart. His concept was a plain, simple and friendly village church in a neo-Gothic transitional style. The building is a brick joint construction made of light gray Wasseralfingen slag stones and white Dettenhausen sandstone on a simple concrete base.

Albstadt-Burgfelden is the smallest and highest district of Albstadt.
If you walk from below, you can enjoy the idyllic little town at the top! 🤩

The old church is absolutely fascinating! A tomb from the 7th century, and paintings of a kind no longer preserved in the northern Alps.
