Hunawihr - St. Jaques le Majeur

Hunawihr - St. Jaques le Majeur
A small church has been on that hill in Hunawihr since the 10th century. The church and the graveyard got surrounded by a strong wall later. The church of today was built 15th/16th century as a fortfified structure. In 1537 the parish accepted protestantism, but obviously not the whole population of Hunawihr changed. Since 1687 the church is "co-used" by protestants - and catholics.
