Guided Story

You're standing before an extraordinary piece of expressionist architecture. Designed by Hans Herkommer in 1925, this Roman Catholic church features fascinating Gothic elements. Look up at the 16-meter high walls, offering a sense of grandeur. Originally, the church was known for its distinctive wooden latticed ceiling inside. After World War II, it was rebuilt in a simplified form with the involvement of Herkommer and his son Jörg. If you glance to the east, you can spot the Villa Racher just 51 meters away.
