Worth seeing, not to be missed on the tour! Masterful craftsmanship and the artistic design of the interior make this building a real highlight. This collegiate church does not need to hide behind "famous" buildings. A visit is really worth it. The Rottenbuch Monastery Church is an important baroque church in Rottenbuch, which is part of a former Augustinian Canons' monastery. Founded in 1073, the monastery became an important religious center. The current church, which was remodeled in the baroque style in the 18th century, impresses with its magnificent furnishings with frescoes, stucco work and altars. The ceiling fresco by Matthäus Günther is particularly noteworthy. After secularization in 1803, the monastery was dissolved, but the church continues to serve as a parish church and is a popular destination for tourists and art lovers.
