St. Laurentius, Catholic church in Kalbach, Germany

The St. Laurentius Church stands on an elevated plateau in the center of Kalbach, featuring high round-arched windows and a steep slate roof with a tower.

The current baroque structure replaced a wooden church in 1733, with construction lasting until 1765 under the direction of Tyrolean master builder Christian Fritz.

The interior displays baroque design elements, including decorated altars transferred from the previous church, with the main altar dating from 1700 and side altars from 1608.

The church belongs to the Parish of St. Katharina von Siena in northwest Frankfurt since 2016, serving the local Catholic community within the Diocese of Limburg.

The foundation stones of the church incorporate materials from both the Kreuzergut quarry and remnants of the destroyed church of Crutzen.
