Wallfahrtskirche St. Johannes Baptist, Gothic Revival pilgrimage church in Hirschberg an der Bergstraße, Germany.

The Wallfahrtskirche St. Johannes Baptist features three naves built in Gothic Revival style with a large hexafoil window above the main portal.

The first church in Leutershausen was documented in 877 when Count Liuther donated the basilica to the Lorsch monastery.

The church contains a Black Madonna statue from 1742, originally from the count's Loreto chapel, representing local religious traditions.

Located at Vordergasse 32, the church maintains regular contact through telephone, fax, and email for visitor inquiries and services.

During construction of the choir, workers discovered tiled floors indicating the church stands on foundations of the old Hirschberg feudal court.
