LocationBergheim, France

Notre-Dame de l′Assomption is a Catholic parish church in the small town of Bergheim, in the Haut-Rhin department of France. It is classified as a Monument historique since 1985.

The current Bergheim church building was preceded by an earlier one, already dedicated to Mary, recorded in the year 705 and visited by Bernard of Clairvaux in 1146, while on his way from Basel to Worms to rally for the Second Crusade. That previous church was destroyed in 1287 during the great fire of Bergheim, which was started by the troops of Rudolf I of Germany.The current Bergheim church was built from 1320 to 1347 and largely modified from 1718 to 1725, which accounts for the fact that it presents features both of Gothic architecture and of Neoclassical architecture.
