Guided Story
You are standing in front of St. Anton Catholic Parish Church, a remarkable example of Romanesque Revival architecture. Designed by Karl Schmid, this protected architectural monument in Bavaria rises with its three-nave design. Notice the two chapels dedicated to Mary. The church is more than a place of worship; it's a tribute to Saint Anthony of Padua, fondly known as Schlamperltoni. Surrounded by a tranquil green space, it provides a serene escape from the city's hustle. Look to the south, just 280 meters away, and you'll find the St. Matthäus Church.
