Remigius Church is the oldest church in the Nagold area, dating back to the 8th century. It was probably part of a Frankish royal court and St. Remigius was the favorite patron saint of the Merovingians. The current building is Romanesque, using spolia from a Roman estate (villa rustica) in this area with Gothic modifications. During the guided tour, you will see the impressive partially preserved frescoes, dating from around 1320 in the nave and 1520 in the baptistery. The exciting history of Remigius Church is interwoven with the first written mention of Nagold in 786, Queen Hildegard, wife of Charlemagne, and the Beguine collection. There are also several historical tombs in the church.

Martin Luther never came to Württemberg, and therefore never came to Nagold. Nevertheless, he is still alive in this country today. Through our German language, which he decisively shaped with his translation of the Bible.

which he played a decisive role in shaping. In addition, there are countless idioms, proverbs and figures of speech from Luther's Bible that are still in use today. These include "laughing your head off", "washing your hands of it", "guarding something like the apple of your eye" and "being one heart and one soul". In line with Luther's advice "Stand firm, open your mouth, stop soon", the city guide does not turn his heart into a "murder pit" during his entertaining tour of the city, but tries to "to speak with the tongues of men and angels", even to "set heaven and earth in motion" so that the guests become "on fire" for Nagold - and in the end "go their way happily".
