St. Christophorus Church Saara

Highlight • Religious Site

It dates from the Romanesque period (approx. 1000 to approx. 1250). Today's inner entrance door and the high window in the sanctuary in the southern longitudinal wall of the church are reminiscent of this origin.

The church can be assigned to the type of Romanesque hall churches, which had no entrance portal on the west side.
