The secret symbolism of the stained glass windows of the Saint-Etienne collegiate church will be revealed to you during a guided tour with an expert.
Religious stained glass windows depict scenes and characters from the Bible.
In Hombourg-Haut, those of the collegiate church of Saint-Etienne are largely composed of symbols, which you must know to guess the story they tell. Recreated after the Second World War, they have a very particular style.
In the small chapel built into the building, a miraculous man defies time: an authentic stained-glass window from the 19th century, a treasure trove of heritage, on which figures the baptism of Christ.
All the symbols, as well as the history of this 13th century architectural jewel, will be unveiled during a guided tour.
