Limbach Municipal Church, Protestant church in Limbach-Oberfrohna, Germany
Limbach Municipal Church is a church building with stone walls and timber-framed construction, topped by a prominent tower. The structure combines various architectural elements and has shaped the town's skyline for centuries.
The original building was a wooden church first documented in 1412. Between 1510 and 1899, it underwent multiple renovations until reaching its current form.
The interior features a classical altar donated by merchant Johann Samuel Esche in 1811, displayed alongside a renewed pulpit. This ensemble reflects the local merchant community's connection to the church and shapes its appearance today.
The building is open on weekdays and during religious services, functioning as an active center for the Protestant community. Visitors should check current visiting times and be respectful during any religious ceremonies taking place.
In 2009, an unusual incident occurred when a vehicle crashed into the church roof. The subsequent structural repairs led to comprehensive restoration work on the building.
