Fortified church St. Georg in Effeltrich Germany

The church castle Effeltrich was built as a fortified church at the end of the 15th century after Nuremberg troops had robbed the place twice. With the approx. 200 meter long wall, the four towers and the battlement on the south side, Effeltrich has the best preserved fortified church in Upper Franconia.

Inside the church you can see some high Gothic figures with a baroque high altar and a rococo pulpit. In 1993 the chancel was given a bronze altar as a tree of life, next to it in the same style as the ambo and the Easter candlestick.
"Kill me, but Stalinism is a disease. A mass mental illness. Like kleptomania. Some monstrous combination of poverty, lack of culture, religiosity (with a substitution of 'God'), gregariousness, roused into hysteria..." Georgy Burkov (1933 - 1990), Soviet Theatre and Film Actor.
