Schorbach - St. Remi

Schorbach - St. Remi
A church, dedicated to Saint Remi was consecrated here in 1143. It was erected on a promontory, that is still named "Butte des Païens". Of this church, the lower part of the tower survived, while the naves are gothic. The church dilapidated and got rebuilt in 1774.

Neighbouring the church is a 12th-century ossuary. It was probably necessary as the burials of the large parish were all done here.
