Origin and history

St Peter St Paul Church in Stutzheim is a religious monument located in the commune of Stutzheim-Offenheim, in the Greater East Region. The available data do not specify its period of construction or its architectural evolution, but its name suggests a double dedication to the apostles Peter and Paul, frequent in medieval or modern churches. Parish churches like Saint-Pierre-Saint-Paul played a central role in the Alsatian villages, serving as a place of worship, community gathering and identity marker.
