St. Maria Himmelfahrt, Catholic parish church in Herxheim bei Landau/Pfalz, Germany.
The church features a Gothic choir with a net ceiling, a brick bell tower from 1585, and a main structure in late Baroque architecture.
The religious site originated around 773 AD with a small chapel, while the current building construction started in 1507 and continued through 1777.
The high altar, designed in 1950, displays a silver tabernacle and a wing altar depicting the Dormition of Mary with scenes from her life.
The church underwent modifications in 1833 to accommodate more worshippers, resulting in a simplified nave layout focused on functionality.
The church maintains a six-bell carillon from 1952 with inscriptions expressing reverence and hope for peace through religious observances.
