Discover culture and history in Neukirch

Neukirch can be explored through a range of cultural themes: St. Andreas Church represents ecclesiastical furnishings and history, while the Rösslekeller hosts various types of events. The Hexenlochmühle also forms part of the Black Forest’s history of technology and culture. If you are planning a stay, you can choose between architectural and local history, stage and event programmes, and a technical cultural monument.

St. Andreas: furnishings and history

St. Andreas Church in Neukirch is a small church dedicated to Saint Andrew. Its history includes its destruction in 1945 and subsequent reconstruction. Its Baroque furnishings also make the building a cultural and historical landmark. They are associated with the names Adam Winterhalder and Matthias Faller.

St. Andreas therefore brings together different historical perspectives: its Baroque furnishings and the history of its reconstruction after the destruction. This may make a difference depending on your interests. If you are particularly interested in historic design, the furnishings and the artists to whom they are attributed are an obvious focus. If you would rather explore local history, the church’s history after 1945 takes centre stage. Both aspects belong to the same building, but tell different parts of its story.

Events at the Rösslekeller

The Rösslekeller is a local cultural venue in Neukirch. Events held there include theatre, concerts, cabaret, readings and exhibitions. This range spans stage performances, music, literature and visual art. It offers several possible points of interest for visitors who would also like to include cultural events in their trip.

Individual events and the programme may change. If a particular type of event is important to your stay, check the Rösslekeller’s event dates before travelling. This lets you plan around a specific event rather than assuming that all the listed types of events are always available. The practical difference from the church’s history is that St. Andreas is primarily about its historic furnishings and reconstruction history, while the Rösslekeller is about its current programme of events.

The Black Forest’s history of technology and culture

The Hexenlochmühle is a Black Forest sawmill with two water wheels. It is considered a popular excursion destination and a well-known technical cultural monument in the region. While St. Andreas is chiefly associated with ecclesiastical furnishings and its history of reconstruction, the focus here is on a sawmill and its technical significance. The two water wheels are a distinctive feature of the mill; it can also be explored as a subject in the history of technology and culture.

This offers a simple comparison when choosing a cultural focus: St. Andreas provides an ecclesiastical and historical point of interest, the Rösslekeller offers a changing programme of different types of events, and the Hexenlochmühle represents the Black Forest’s history of technology and culture. Which of these will shape your stay most depends on whether you are more interested in historic furnishings, a specific event or a technical cultural monument.
