St. Cäcilia, Baroque church in Heusenstamm, Germany.

The church features a central bell tower crowned with an onion dome and contains detailed ceiling frescoes painted by Christoph Thomas Scheffler.

Johann Balthasar Neumann constructed this Catholic burial church between 1739 and 1741 for the Schönborn family branch of Heusenstamm.

The church received its name from Saint Cecilia of Rome, the patron saint of church music, and maintains regular religious services.

The crypt beneath the church contains the remains of nine members from the Schönborn lineage and includes historical burial monuments.

The church holds the preserved heart of Countess Maria Theresia von Schönborn, who commissioned its construction but died before its consecration.
