Abbatiale Saints-Pierre-et-Paul d'Ottmarsheim: an 11th-century Romanesque jewel on the Alsace Romanesque Route, waiting to be discovered!

Standing proudly on Alsace's Romanesque Route, Ottmarsheim's Saints-Pierre-et-Paul abbey church has defied the test of time. Born at the instigation of Rodolphe d'Altenbourg, ancestor of the Habsburgs, it was consecrated in 1049 by an Alsatian pope, Leo IX. Its octagonal architecture, inspired by Aachen, blends early Christian, Byzantine and Ottonian influences. Devastated, pillaged, rebuilt, it is constantly being reborn. Today, its stones whisper a thousand years of history, and its theatrical tours plunge you into the heart of a fascinating past.

Quelle magnifique bâtisse que cet Abbatiale Saint Paul et Pierre. Le lieu est exceptionnellement beau, mais cela est du à une restauration total de l'édifice à la suite d'un incendie en 1991. Les peintures sont magnifiques. Pour les chercheurs de lieux sacrés et énergétique, vous pouvez sans problème vous y attarder. Des visites sont également organisés par l'office du tourisme local.

Un joyau roman incontournable de l'Alsace avec son plan octogonal très particulier qui évoque Aachen. Les fresques plus recentes sont à remarquer également. À voir et revoir.
