Zehnacker

Protestant church

Description

This village called “the ten fields’ village” or the “tithing field” has a very quaint church, unique in Alsace. In 1852, in order to replace a simultaneous church, the Catholic and Protestant places of worship were built under the same roof, separated by an inside wall. On the Protestant entrance’s tympanum is engraved this latin phrase: “Hic domus dei et porta in coelum » (Here is God’s house and the door to heaven).
