St. Boniface Church, Rannungen

Highlight • Religious Site

Due to the patronage of Boniface and the close relationship of the place to the Mattonen, it can be assumed that monks from Fulda built a first church in Rannungen soon after the death of the saint. There is written evidence of Rannungen as a parish seat from 1187.
St. Boniface (recorded in 2023)

The current parish church of St. Boniface dates back to a new building by Julius Echter in 1588/1589. The tower, which stands on medieval foundations, has been preserved from this construction phase. However, its original, typically Franconian pointed dome (so-called Julius Echter Tower) was replaced by the current French dome after the "Bäcker fire" (1726). Prince-Bishop Johann Philipp von Greiffenclau had the nave rebuilt in 1716 according to plans by Joseph Greissing. The church was expanded to its current size in 1913 by adding a transverse building with two window axes. The church has baroque furnishings, in particular the painting in the high altar with the resurrection of Lazarus (17th century) and an altarpiece with the martyrdom of St. Lawrence, on loan from St. Kilian's Cathedral in Würzburg. The Romanesque baptismal font and the Renaissance pulpit with wood inlays appear to have been taken from the previous building. A cycle of paintings from 1913/14 depicting the legend of Boniface is set into the stucco ceiling; these paintings in the historicist style were created by Hans Bayerlein (Bamberg) and are strongly based on the frescoes that were destroyed in the war and that Professor Heinrich von Hess had created for the Munich Abbey of St. Boniface.

In the outside area of the church there is a Mount of Olives group, baroque, sandstone, around 1780

Rannungen Village Centre

Highlight • Settlement

Beautiful, agricultural town in the Schweinfurt Oberland. However, it belongs to the Bad Kissingen district. Numerous wayside shrines and hall crosses bear witness to an eventful history

Anniversary Hut for Hambach’s 750th Anniversary

Highlight • Mountain Hut

This small refuge was built during two days at the 750th anniversary of Hambach in 2014.
2 local carpenters had invited Tippelbrüder and planned this hut, built in Franconian half-timbered with traditional carpentry.
After the party, they thought about where the hut could be put up. And found a nice place to take a break here between the villages of Pfändhausen, Holzhausen and Hambach.

Go in there.
