Chapelle Saint-Pierre-et-Paul de Wissembourg, Medieval chapel in Wissembourg, France.
The Saint-Pierre-et-Paul Chapel features Romanesque and Gothic elements with a square tower and two distinct bell towers integrated into the architectural ensemble.
Founded around 660 by Austrasian nobles, the chapel belonged to Wissembourg Abbey, which became one of the most influential institutions in the Holy Roman Empire.
The stained glass windows from the 13th and 14th centuries decorate the building, while a 12-meter monumental fresco of Saint Christopher covers one wall.
The chapel stands on Avenue de la Sous-Prefecture in Wissembourg and maintains its religious functions under the authority of the Strasbourg diocese.
The Romanesque bell tower, completed in 1074, rises through five distinct levels and represents an exceptional example of Alsatian religious architecture.
