St. Anthony's Church Fintel was first mentioned in a document in 1426. It was built in the brick neo-Gothic style. Inside the church is a treasure trove of carved wooden figures from the remains of various altars from the previous medieval churches.
In 2001, the church was given a new organ by master organ builder Kristian Wegscheider from Dresden. It blends in harmoniously with the architectural style of the church: The organ façade and the sound of the 16 stops correspond to German Romantic organ building around 1870, as do the materials.
On the website of theKirchengemeinde Fintelyou will find detailed historical information and pictures.
As an "open cycle path church", the church is open daily from 9.00 am to 6.00 pm during the summer months. This gives visitors the opportunity to visit the church outside of service times, for a short pause and for a prayer.
You are also welcome to take part in the services or visit the diverse offerings of the church community, which includes over 1800 parishioners.
We look forward to welcoming every guest.
