Franziskanerkloster Klosterkirche St. Stephan

Meilleur moment pour visiter

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.

Conseils budget

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.

Recommandé pour

À propos

Faits rapides: Le monastère franciscain de Füssen abrite l'une des plus anciennes fresques de toute l'Allemagne, datant du XIIIe siècle. L'église monastique Saint-Étienne est la seule église romane conservée de la ville et son clocher offre une vue imprenable sur le panorama de Füssen.

Points forts: Sous le sol de l'église se cache une rare fresque du Christ datant de 1280, découverte tout à fait par hasard lors d'une rénovation en 1956. Les couleurs médiévales originales sont si vives qu'elles semblent avoir été peintes il y a seulement quelques années.

Conseils d'initiés

  • 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.
