Kirche, Protestant church in Nesselröden, Germany

The Evangelische Kirche Nesselröden is a cubic, classicist hall church built in 1852 to plans by Anton Jacob Spangenberg. Its exterior is marked by sandstone ashlar masonry, two tiers of windows and a hipped roof topped on the west side by a small ridge turret. Inside, a flat ceiling rests on pillars, with galleries between them and the pulpit set high on the north-east wall above the patron's box.

A church stood here by 1146, and its successor was built in 1546 on those older foundations, as pastor Wilhelm Bach recorded in an 1835 church survey. That building received an organ in 1787. The present church was erected in 1852 to plans by Anton Jacob Spangenberg, replacing the 1546 structure.

The church serves as a gathering place for worship and community events that bring neighbors together throughout the year. Visitors can experience local traditions through services and performances that shape daily life in the village.

Visitors can find information about services and events on the parish website for Herleshausen-Nesselröden church. The church sits in a central village location that is easy to reach for both residents and guests.

The altar was made in the 1940s from sandstone left over from building the motorway bridge north of Wommen. The free-standing font donated in 2001 was cut so that the old baptismal bowl fits inside it.
