St. Jacob's Church, Herxheim am Berg, Protestant church in Herxheim am Berg, Germany.
The church features a groin-vaulted chancel, a semicircular apse, and a nave constructed in 1729 with distinct architectural elements.
The foundation of St. Jacob's Church dates back to 1014, making it one of the oldest ecclesiastical structures in the Rhineland-Palatinate region.
The interior walls display 14th-century paintings depicting the Four Evangelists, both in human form with wings and with their symbolic heads.
The church maintains regular Protestant services and welcomes visitors who wish to examine its medieval architecture and historical artwork.
A bell from 1934 bears Nazi-era inscriptions and remains in the tower as a memorial with an explanatory plaque for educational purposes.
