This church has stood in Roßtal for around 1,000 years. It is typically made of sandstone for the region. Over the centuries, something has been added or repaired over and over again, which is why you can recognize different stylistic epochs: Some components come from the Romanesque, others like the tower from the Gothic. Its interior is also worth seeing and differs from many other churches: the ceiling is quite low for a church and clad with wood. There is also a two-story gallery on one side of the nave.

The altar from the late 17th century has a predella with a free-sculpture crucifixion group. The sandstone pulpit probably dates from 1627 and has a sound cover with rocaille carving …

The Evangelical Lutheran St. Laurentius Church has shaped the architectural image of the Franconian market in Roßtal for around 1,000 years. The mighty structure that visitors can see today clearly shows architectural styles from different eras. You can find detailed information about the church and the crypt, which was probably built around 1020 at: ev-kirche-rosstal.de/gebaeude/rosstal
