Best Hikes to Grumbach Church

Tips

  • The Grumbach church was originally a Romanesque church. In 1610 it was rebuilt into its current form. The old Romanesque portal is still preserved in the north-western vestibule.
    A Jahn organ is said to have been in the church around 1700. In 1863 the church received the current organ, created by Johann Friedrich Nikolaus Jahn.
    The 96 square panels of the ceiling with biblical scenes are also worth mentioning.

  • Info:The origins of the Grumbach church
    are obscure. However, the layout
    and geographical location of the church and
    the rectory suggest
    that the church was founded immediately
    as the village was being developed in the last third
    of the 12th century. The oldest
    component of the church is the Romanesque
    door frame of the main entrance. In the
    early 17th century, the
    church underwent extensive structural expansion.
    Next to the church is the
    parsonage, which houses the "House of Silence"
    – a regional facility
    for people seeking peace and quiet and seeking to find contemplation of God.
