Oberelchingen Monastery Church

The magnificent parish and pilgrimage church of St. Peter and Paul towers majestically above the Danube Valley on the "Holy Mountain" in Oberelchingen. Built in 1142 as a Benedictine abbey church, it was redesigned in the early neoclassical style by Joseph Dossenberger in the 18th century. The monastery garden, newly laid out according to ancient documents, is worth seeing.
