St. Crispinus and St. Crispinianus

St. Crispinus and St. Crispinianus is a parish church in Saarlouis featuring two spires and ornamental windows typical of German religious architecture. The interior contains original wooden seating and decorative furnishings arranged in traditional layout.

The church was built in the 18th century as Saarlouis developed from a French fortification into a settled town. Its construction reflects the religious needs of the growing community during that period.

The church honors Saints Crispinus and Crispinianus, the protectors of shoemakers. You can see this connection to the craft reflected in religious artwork throughout the building.

The church is open to visitors on most days and offers space for quiet reflection or prayer. Bear in mind that services take place at certain times, so checking ahead can help you plan your visit around active worship.

The interior preserves original wooden runners beneath the pews, a detail typical of 18th-century German churches. These small elements show the care that went into creating comfortable spaces for worshippers.
