Your Itinerary

Stiftskirche

It is one of the symbols of the city. The former cloister church demonstrates still its romanic origins, sprinkled with gothic style particularly in the choir. The altar dedicated to St. Mary was built in the late 15th century by Michael Wohlgemut, a teacher of the famous German medieval painter Albrecht Dürers.

Johanniskirche

It was once the parish church of the city. The frescos in the ceiling of the choir stem from the 15th century, but the baroque altar was only finished at the end of the 17th century. Notice also the sandstone relief of Jörg von Ehenheims, a medieval knight, of the 15th century as well.

Oberes Tor

The Upper Gate is the only surviving Baroque gateway of the city, lovingly restaured by the city. It is also the sight for many events, hosting plays, concerts and other cultural venues.
