Chapelle de la vierge à DInsheim sur Bruche

Chapel of the Virgin

The chapel is located in the centre of the village and was particularly frequented by pregnant women and people suffering from ringworm. The chapel consists of a short nave with two axes and a choir with sloping sides. The two stained glass windows are from the Berges ateliers in Toulouse. Their construction remains a mystery, but is probably attributed to the 17th century. The chapel was renovated in 1972.

Sts-Simon and Jude church

The neoclassical building, erected between 1828 and 1832, was completely restored after the fire of 1987. In 1836, Stiehr-Mockers installed the organ, to which Franz Kriess added a separate mechanical console in 1896. The organ was severely damaged in the fire: all the pipes had melted in the heat. The clock was installed in the bell tower in 1845. The two paintings that still adorn the choir today date from 1856 and 1861.

On 18 July 1875, the Holy Year, a statue of the Virgin and Child was erected on the Schiebenberg hill (alt. 317m), made of golden cast iron and placed on a stone base. It was erected as a sign of thanksgiving because in the 1870s, the mayor, the parish priest and the sexton were arrested by the Prussians for alleged connivance with the enemy.
