Protestant Church of Soultz-sous-Forêts
The Protestant Church of Soultz-sous-Forêts has been listed as a historic monument since 1983. Its history is closely linked to the lords of Fleckenstein, who owned the territory of Soultz early on. Several members of this family are buried there, possibly in the church choir, while other graves are located in Weiterswiller, Buhl, or Haguenau. Eight defaced tombstones are still visible embedded in the choir wall.
The building features architecture dating from the early 16th century. The tower and nave were rebuilt in 1730. A major renovation took place between 1912 and 1913: the Walcker company from Ludwigsburg installed an organ, supplemented by a positive organ in 1961. At that time, the rounded arch was replaced by a pointed arch, and the pulpit was moved to the right side. The choir woodwork and altarpiece were also added during this period.
The choir stained glass windows date from 1912 and 1951.
On some stones of the choir vault and the exterior buttresses, mason's marks can be seen, signatures of the stonemasons who took part in the construction.
