Even from a distance, one can see on the edge of the Rheinhessen vineyard sea the "Jewel of the Wonnegau," the nearly 1000-year-old Romanesque basilica of St. Lambertus in Bechtheim.
The basilica consecrated to St. Lambert of Liège (635 - 700) from the 11th century was formerly owned by the Augustinian canons at Mount Aegidius in Liège. Special features of the three-aisled basilica include a choir platform and a crypt with barrel vaults, as well as wall paintings from the 14th century. During the Middle Ages, it served as a pilgrimage church. From 1684 to 1910, the basilica was used as a simultaneum church. It is one of the most significant Romanesque village churches in Rheinhessen.
