Georgskirche, Protestant church in Bickelsberg, Germany.

The Georgskirche is a Protestant parish church in Bickelsberg, a district of Rosenfeld. Its white-walled nave with a steep red-tiled hipped roof was built in 1746 as a hall church with a three-sided gallery; the square tower with a dark pyramidal spire and clock is older and retains Romanesque elements. The interior has around 500 seats.

A chapel dedicated to St. George was mentioned in 1322, and Bickelsberg became its own parish in 1505. The Reformation was introduced in 1534. The present church was built in 1746 as a hall church with three-sided galleries in Bauernbarock style, while the tower retains Romanesque elements from an earlier structure.

The pulpit carved in 1751 shows the four Evangelists and Martin Luther, and the late Gothic font probably comes from the 1505 predecessor church. The three-sided gallery carries Bauernbarock painting on its parapet and in the ceiling panels, and Gustav Th. Dürr made eight glass paintings in 1914, set into two cathedral-glass windows with Christ symbols such as pelican, eagle, lamb and cross.

The church was closed temporarily in summer 2022 after sudden masonry damage, so check locally before planning a visit. The two bells in the tower form a major third together; the source gives no casting dates. The nave holds 500 seats, and the war memorial with Paul Kälberer's 1956 sgraffito of Archangel Michael hangs on the left of the front wall beside the pulpit.

The war memorial sits on the left of the chancel wall beside the pulpit, with a plaque and, above it, a sgraffito of Archangel Michael made in 1956 by Paul Kälberer, founder of the Bernsteinschule. His signature is on the dragon's wing.
