Heselbach - St. Peter

Not much is known about this place, just 2kms north of the Reichenbach Monastery ("Kloster Reichenbach"). Since 1289 Heselbach was a property of the priory and the small church (11,45 m long) was probably built by the monks. According to Reinhard Wischermann ("Romanik in Baden Wuerttemberg") the church may be dedicated to St. Peter. The structure may seem humble, but it does have a very elaborate portal, taking in account the size and the remoteness of the settlement.
