Rosheim - Saints-Pierre-et-Paul
The construction of the "Église Saints-Pierre-et-Paul", using the local pinkish sandstone, started around 1150. The gothic-style crossing tower was added around 1300. The basilica-sytle church has the classical layout of a latin cross and is known for the carvings. Though some of these got damaged during the French Revolution, most of them are still in place.
Size and the quality of some of them is really breathtaking. Here on the top is an eagle and below man-eating lions. The architecture of this church is sometimes compared with a medieaval reliquary-shrine - and there are parallels indeed, seeing it from this side.
When in 1622 a troop of mercenaries led by Peter von Mansfeld burnt down the whole village of Rosheim, this building was the only one, that survived. A legends tell, that it was defended by angels.
