Our Grandparents' Church
The protestant church sits a bit farther down the road from the museum.
It replaced a wooden one which burned prior to 1580, so this is considered the "new" church.
According to Frau Luthi, this is where all the marriages, baptizms, weddings and funerals were held for both the Webers and the Goldenbergers since 1580.
The interior is simple with a choir/organ loft at the back and the traditional raised pulpit in the front. The building gave a feeling of reverence. It reminded me of the Freedom and Bedford churches. Very clean, simple and quiet.
