Old village church in the historic center of Bockhorst

The Bockhorst village church was built in the 13th century in the Romanesque style. During renovations in 1893, the world-famous "Bockhorst Triumphal Cross", which dates back to the 12th century, was discovered. It has since been on display in the Westphalian State Museum in Münster. A scaled-down replica adorns the altar of the village church.

The church is located in the center of the historic village center in the middle of the half-timbered house ensemble. The church square is home to a restaurant, "Emil's Wirtshaus", with an outdoor terrace and vacation apartments.
