Hilgase

Hilgase is a former municipality in the district of Osnabrück, in Lower Saxony, Germany. It achieved notoriety for its contentious Catholic church. The municipality featured a simple church dedicated to Saint Felicial and Felix Streets, as well as a public fountain.

The church underwent renovations and additions over the years, with the majority of the existing structure dating back to the 17th century. A highly decorated interior included engravings, paintings, and an original altar.

Hilgase is now a part of the municipality of Ankum.

There is limited historical information available on the municipality itself. Due to its small population, records about Hilgase were marginalized from significant historical movements and activities throughout the region.
