Bergkirche St. Michael, Romanesque church on Kirchberg hill in Büsingen am Hochrhein, Germany.
The Bergkirche St. Michael stands at 420 meters elevation between Büsingen and Dörflingen, featuring small round-arched windows and an octagonal baptismal font.
First mentioned in a protection letter from Pope Urban II in 1095, the church served as a baptismal center for multiple communities including Büsingen and Schaffhausen.
The medieval ensemble includes the Mesmerhaus and a former economic building, with ancient tombstones preserved within the ring wall perimeter.
The church hosts regular ceremonies, weddings, and organ concerts, supported by three associations and two foundations dedicated to its preservation.
Located in a 17-hectare landscape protection area established in 1939, the church tower contains three bells, including one newly cast in 1978.
