St. Remigius

St. Remigius, Parish church in Merdingen, Germany.

St. Remigius is a parish church in Merdingen with Baroque architecture, elaborate stucco decorations, ornate altars, and ceiling frescoes. The interior showcases the precise craftsmanship of different specialized artists from that period.

A church in Merdingen is first documented in 1139, when it belonged to the Hochstift Basel. In 1346 it passed to the Teutonic Order and was subject to its Kommende in Freiburg until the secularisation of 1806 brought it to the Grand Duchy of Baden. After a 1737 thunderstorm left the building irreparable, it was demolished in 1738 and rebuilt by Johann Caspar Bagnato; the first service in the new church was held on 1 October 1740.

The church displays the handiwork of Italian artists such as Francesco Pozzi, who crafted the stucco decorations. This reveals the close artistic connections between Italy and German-speaking regions during the 18th century.

The church stands on the raised former cemetery in the middle of the densely built village centre; the view from the north is partly blocked by the demolition of the Baroque street wall. The west tower divides the facade into three parts, with the main portal beneath a large figure niche. The cemetery was moved to the edge of the village in 1811, but the grave of pastor Joachim was kept.

The church was named Baden-Württemberg's Monument of the Month for July 2006 by the Denkmalstiftung Baden-Württemberg. The honour recognised the restoration carried out in 2005 and 2006, the most recent in a series that began as early as 1778 under Franz Anton Bagnato, son of the architect.
