The Niedermodern church is the charm of the village. Its recent renovation is a fine example of the concerns of Protestantism at the start of the new millennium. A church open to the world of work, industry, technology ... Reinhard Dassler, contemporary painter from Karlsruhe, was commissioned by the patron Nikolaus von Gayling to create an altarpiece for the Protestant church in the village. The washing of the feet (John 13) is the central scene of the triptych in relation to the sacraments of baptism and Holy Communion. In a resolutely figurative-realistic style, the event is updated and placed in the world of the 3rd millennium, while referring to representations of the Renaissance.
Visit the interior of the Protestant church located in the center of the town, and see the remarkable triptych altarpiece installed on the back wall of the choir. In a "contemporary hyperrealist" style, this work of art, created by Reinhard Dassler, was graciously offered by Baron Nikolaus von Gayling to the parish of Niedermodern in December 2000.
