Constructed between 1898 and 1903, architect Josef Kuld's vision is evident in the church's intricate details and soaring spires. Look up to see the delicate stonework reaching towards the sky. This Catholic church is more than a place of worship; it's also a protected cultural heritage monument in Germany.
