The parish church of Deutschkreutz is a church in which Anton Lehmden participated in the design. Anton Lehmden provided all the designs for the large-scale remodeling work in the church, the exterior with the staircase, the obelisk and the baroque gable, which is adorned with a mosaic by the artist "ARCHE NOAH".

Together with this mosaic, a total of 35 works of art by Anton Lehmden currently adorn the Deutschkreutz parish church: 14 Stations of the Cross paintings, oil paintings on white marble, sixteen painted antique glass windows and the oil painting "MADONNA IM WEINGEBIRGE".

In 2001 the decoration of the church was completed by Anton Lehmden: Two paintings "BIRTH OF THE LORD" and "RESURRECTION OF THE LORD" (300x80 cm) were installed and the painting of the crypt lid was made by the artist. The design of the church was completed with the painting of the columns, the lyses above the columns and the choir parapet by Anton Lehmden. Finally, the choice of lighting, colors for painting the interior of the church and various details were made by the artist, so that the artist's signature can be felt in the whole.
