概要
クイックファクト: The onion-domed tower rises 67 meters above the rooftops and serves as the visual anchor for the entire town center. Inside, ceiling frescoes by local artist Michael Zeno Diemer depict scenes from the life of Saint Martin in vivid 18th-century Bavarian Baroque style.
見どころ: Step inside on a sunny afternoon and watch how the afternoon light streams through the windows, catching the gold-leafed altars and making the ceiling frescoes seem to glow from within. The church organ, built in 1930 by the renowned G. F. Steinmeyer & Co., has 38 registers and fills the entire vaulted space with sound during Sunday mass.
インサイダーヒント
- Visit on a clear day when the sun is high to see the frescoes at their most luminous.
- Walk around the exterior to spot the sundial painted on the south wall, easily missed by rushing visitors.
- Combine your visit with a stroll through the adjacent historic cemetery to see ornate old Bavarian grave markers.
- Step inside quietly during a weekday afternoon when the organist may be practicing for an unexpected private concert.
