Wow, what a beautiful church in Bacharach. This Church is definitely worth seeing. This historic place has so much to offer.

Bacharach, owes its fame to its vineyards and its wine trade. Founded by the Celts, passed later into the possession of the Archbishops of Cologne. Vines were planted here in the time of the Romans. The Protestant parish church of St. Peter dominates the centre of the town. The church was built from 1230 to 1269 as a three-aisled gallery basilica and renovated at the end of the 19th century. From 112th century until the Reformation, St. Peter belonged to the Andreas Monastery in Cologne. The church building is dominated by the west tower and received its current painting during the course of the restorationsfrom 1992 to 1995. The organ was built in 1826 by the Stumm brothers.

Beautiful church at the center of an absolutely charming town. St. Peter represents the Rhenish transitional style in Bacharach . The church was built from 1230 to 1269 as a three-aisled gallery basilica and renovated at the end of the 19th century. Despite the largely Romanesque construction, the four-storey wall elevation was based on the early Gothic of French church building, which was often taken as a model at this time, especially in the Rhineland . [1] From 1194 until the Reformation , St. Peter belonged to the Andreas Monastery in Cologne . The monastery provided the pastor and was responsible for ecclesiastical jurisdiction in the four valley area, which was based in the old Kurkölnisches Saalhofhad opposite the church. In 1810, the French administration demolished the Saalhof , and today the Altkölnische Saal occupies the site. Free Recommended
