The Church of Saint Peter in Alvosheim, known as "Le Dompeter," is considered the oldest church in Alsace, founded by Maternus, the evangelizer of the Rhine Valley. The portal, the lintels of the side doors, and the central nave remain from the Romanesque period. The nave consists of five bays whose large arcades rest on powerful pillars. Le Dompeter became a place of pilgrimage throughout the Middle Ages, attracting numerous pilgrims seeking cures for headaches or eye ailments. During this same period, the pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela developed, and Alvosheim was still part of the route.
