Saint Gall's Church, Niedermorschwihr, Alsace, France

The Saint Gall's church dating from the 18th century has a listed architectural rarity only fifteen times in Europe: the twisted roof trunk of the Gothic bell-tower of the 13th century, with another rarity: a Silbermann organ of 1726. Niedermorschwihr was known under the name of Morswilre as of 1148. The village was renamed Niedermorschwihr at the 16th century in order to be able to distinguish it from Obermorschwihr which is close to Eguisheim.
