Franziskanerkloster Klosterkirche St. Stephan

Bedste tid at besøge

Early in the morning between 9:00 and 10:00, when the church is almost empty and the sunbeams highlight the details of the frescoes. Outside the main season (October to April) you will often have the whole space to yourself.

Budgettips

Entry to the church is free, a voluntary contribution for maintenance is welcome. A combined ticket for several Füssen attractions will save you money if you plan to visit the castles as well.

Om

Hurtige fakta: Franciskanerklosteret i Füssen gemmer på en af de ældste fresker i hele Tyskland, som stammer fra det 13. århundrede. Klosterkirken Sankt Stefan er den eneste bevarede romanske kirke i byen, og dens klokketårn byder på en imponerende udsigt over Füssens skyline.

Højdepunkter: Under kirkegulvet gemmer sig en sjælden Kristus-freske fra 1280, som blev opdaget helt tilfældigt under en renovering i 1956. De originale middelalderfarver er så levende, at de ser ud som om de er malet for bare få år siden.

Insidertips

  • At the entrance, notice the small door to the left of the main altar. It leads to the cloister with medieval frescoes that many visitors overlook.
  • The best photo is from the monastery courtyard with a view of the Gothic bell tower in the background, especially in the afternoon when the sun illuminates the stone details.
  • Bring a flashlight with you. The lighting in the side chapels is dim and the frescoes stand out better with direct light.
  • Combine your visit with a walk to the Lech River, which is only a 3-minute walk away and offers a beautiful view of the church from a distance.
