Built in the 14th century as a Franciscan monastery church, the Barfüßerkirche showcases Gothic architecture. Despite its near destruction in 1944, the choir was restored in the 1950s and now stands as a monument on the right bank of the Breitstrom. Architect Theo Kellner contributed to its restoration, securing its heritage status in Thuringia.
