Culture
The Basilica of St. George and St. Pancras is a well-preserved late and High Romanesque church, whose construction began around 1150. Its cruciform, three-aisled layout features a Rhenish alternation of supports. The Church of St. George and St. Pancras is part of the Romanesque Road. Visitors can tour the basilica, take part in guided tours, and use a virtual experience tour connecting the palace park with the basilica; guided visits can also be arranged in advance.
The Stern is Hecklingen’s oldest building and serves as a cultural hall. The Church of St. George and St. Pancras also houses the Rühlmann organ with 1,000 pipes, which is used for concerts.
