Guided Story
Imagine standing on a gentle hill with the Würm river quietly flowing by. The air is serene, and you can see the Gothic spires of the church reaching into the sky. Did you know this church was once a filial church? It belonged to the St. Quirin Church in Aubing until it became a parish church in 1945. This might be why it feels a bit secluded, like a hidden gem in the city. Take a closer look at the intricate stone carvings on the doors – they speak of craftsmanship that has stood the test of time. And if you listen closely, you might just feel the echo of centuries of prayers and devotion.
