Beautiful Gothic church with a surprisingly modern design of the choir / altar.
Part of the Holy Cross Monastery, probably belongs to the Dominican Order.

Right next door is the evangelical sibling - it's nice that different denominations live side by side in a traditionally liberal way.
p.s. Anecdote - during the Thirty Years' War the evangelical church collapsed, the catholic remained intact. In WWII it was the other way around. We learn that in war everyone suffers.
