About the location

Église Sainte-Marguerite

Place Sainte-Marguerite, 67118 Geispolsheim

Bas-Rhin

Grand Est

The church of Sainte-Marguerite in Geispolsheim, built in 1771, is one of the most beautiful examples of 18th century Alsatian baroque architecture. It is distinguished by its imposing side bell tower, the base of which comes from the old medieval church.
In front, the aileron gable and the gate with molded leaves testify to the late baroque style. A niche houses the statue of Saint Marguerite slaying a dragon, a symbol of evil. The original polychrome wood (1480) is preserved inside.
The whole church is captivating for its harmony and unity of style. The nave, remodeled in the 19th century, has a painted stucco ceiling and is extended by a polygonal choir.
The baroque furniture is the work of the sculptor François-Antoine Ketterer, active around 1770\. The high altar, richly decorated, is surmounted by a baldachin with four columns. A canvas painted by Monique Tanisch in the 19th century depicts Saint Marguerite crowned by Christ.
The pulpit, in the same spirit, is surmounted by a lam
