Guided Story
Standing here, you're in front of the oldest church within the Wuppertal city limits, a remarkable example of Romanesque architecture. This church, originally known as St. Vitus, is part of the reformed denomination and now goes by the name Evangelische Kirche Schöller. It's recognized as an architectural heritage monument in North Rhine-Westphalia and is the only remaining Romanesque hall church in the area. If you look around, you'll notice the simple yet powerful structure that has stood the test of time. Just a short distance to the northwest is the Rittergut Schöller, another historical site closely linked to the church's past. Take a moment to soak in the tranquil atmosphere and sense the historical connections surrounding you.
