St. Martin's Church

St. Martin's Church

Biberach an der Riß, DE

The church of St. Martin was probably founded around 1100 as a Romanesque church and replaced by a Gothic building between 1320 and 1370. At the time of the Reformation, the Simultaneum (a policy allowing public worship by the followers of two or more religious groups in the same church: Simultankirche) was established for St. Martin's Church, and Protestants and Catholics shared the church since 13 August 1548. This was especially true for the nave, the choir remaining purely Roman Catholic. This condition was established by the Peace of Westphalia, which referred to the normal year 1624, and still exists today. According to the land register, the owner of the parish church is the Gemeinschaftliche Kirchenpflege Biberach.
