Kirche Bächlingen

The Johanneskirche features a choir tower structure with medieval frescoes decorating the interior walls and distinct architectural elements from different construction periods.

The first documented mention of the church dates to 1245, with the lower sections of the tower constructed during the early to mid-14th century.

Medieval frescoes in the choir section represent significant Franconian art created between 1350 and 1360, depicting biblical scenes and religious figures.

The church opens its doors during summer days, offering guided tours upon request and regular services as part of the Langenburg congregation.

A stone epitaph inside the church displays Knight Burkhard Reze von Bächlingen in full armor, accompanied by inscriptions detailing his life.
