Buggingen - Betberg

Buggingen - Betberg
Betberg is a little hamlet, belonging to Buggingen. The name "Betberg" sounds like a "program", "bet" means "pray" and "berg" means "mountain". Betberg had of the earliest churches in the area. The church was first mentioned in 789, but brick foundations, found during a renovation in the 1970s date from around 700.

The current church was probably built between 1100 and 1145. The tower was erected around the year 1200. Of course the church underwent numerous alterations, enlargements and renovations over the centuries.

The entrance hall has four large frescoes from the early 16th century. The best preserved is the "Last Supper"

Strong erosion of ages is a pity! Still it is enough to see what this fresco is about.
