Culture and History

The parish church of Blaesheim is a Baroque church built in 1762. Inside, an organ by organ builder Franz Kriess and two stained-glass windows by glass artist Joseph Ehrismann were installed in 1923.

The Tour du Gloeckelsberg stands on the Gloeckelsberg and is the last remaining part of the former church dating from the 11th and 12th centuries. The tower also houses a 13th-century gravestone. Another historic site is the Place du Couronnement: it was created in 1804 to commemorate the coronation of Emperor Napoleon I and consists of a sandstone column surrounded by a wreath of linden trees.
