Saint Cyriacus, to whom this church in Gellershausen is dedicated, was a deacon and martyr from the time of early Christianity. According to Catholic tradition, he is one of the Fourteen Holy Helpers. Saint Cyriacus's feast day in the liturgical calendar is August 8th. On a prayer card—originally from another church dedicated to him—the following intercession to the saint is inscribed: “Saint Cyriacus, open our eyes to the physical and spiritual needs of our fellow human beings. Grant us the willingness to listen to even the humblest among us with their great worries and to stand by them in their distress. Help us so that our hearts do not become hardened by selfishness and hopelessness.”

The Evangelical Lutheran Church of St. Mary Margaret is located in the Rentwertshausen district of the Grabfeld municipality in the Schmalkalden-Meiningen district of Thuringia. It belongs to the Bibra parish in the Meiningen church district of the Evangelical Church in Central Germany. There is no date of construction for this strikingly small village church, with its half-timbered upper story in the church tower. Nothing is known about a previous building. However, the year 1604 in the pulpit inscription is linked to the construction period. The organ was purchased around 1800, and the baptismal font, dating from 1844, is neo-Gothic. In 1983, the church received modern wooden decorations, including an altar cross, antependium, ambo, and pulpit, by the Greiz artist Elly-Viola Nahmmacher.

A beautiful historic market square, well-preserved and restored half-timbered houses, a few cafes and ice cream parlors invite you to sit outside in the summer.

Great bike path. No bumps, potholes, etc. You can really put the pedal to the metal here.

The focal point of Bad Königshofen is the large market square with its three ornamental fountains: the Luitpold Fountain under the linden tree, the Röhrenbrunnen (Tube Fountain), and the Michaelsbrunnen (Michael Fountain), above which the wrought-iron angel "floats." The Vierröhrenbrunnen (Four-Tube Fountain) in front of the Schlundhaus (Thrush House) was fed by a water pipe even before the Thirty Years' War, making it an important part of the town. Also located on the market square is the medieval Kornstein (cornstone) from 1525, which formerly served as a grain measuring device.
