| Traditionally, churches are the center of all communities. Bavarian churches are no exception and are beautiful examples of unique architecture, colors and frescos. The Alpine Village has had a number of churches inspired by actual ones that still stand to this day. The original ones were designed by Department 56 Master Architect Neilan Lund. Latter ones were designed by Barb Lund and Tom Bates. For the purpose of this list, and due to the high collectability of churches by collectors, all religious buildings and coordinating religious themed accessories are found here. | ||||||||||||
