Berger Kirche, Romanesque church in Niederbrechen, Germany.
The Berger Kirche stands on a rock west of Niederbrechen, featuring a main nave, side nave, and Gothic tower with medieval frescos inside.
First documented in 910, Louis the Child donated the church to Count Konrad Kurzbold, making it one of the oldest religious structures in Hesse.
The church transformed from a parish center to a cemetery chapel for Werschau in 1571, maintaining its religious importance for the local community.
The Freundeskreis Berger Kirche organization maintains the building, arranges regular concerts, and keeps the church open for visitors throughout the year.
Archaeological excavations in 1989 revealed Carolingian-era graves near the church, providing evidence of early medieval settlements in the region.
