Guided Story

You're standing before a true piece of history. This baroque church, founded in 1641, is a remarkable example of the architectural style of its time. Look up, and you'll notice the absence of a tower – quite unusual for a church. Serving as a subsidiary to the parish of St. Martin, this church is a protected cultural heritage monument in Bavaria. Behind you, the Hofberg rises, with the church marking the formal end of Neustadt in that direction. If you turn around, you might catch a glimpse of the Basilica of St. Martin, just a short walk to the northwest. Dedicated to St. Ignatius of Loyola, an important figure in the Catholic Church, this place is steeped in history and spirituality.
