Peterskirche

TIME : 2016/2/18 19:42:00

Looking back on a 1000-year history, this enigmatic church is now a war memorial, hiding exquisite time-faded frescos of the Passion of Christ by Hans Holbein the Elder. The cool, dimly lit interior is a quiet spot for contemplation. Next door is the turreted 14th-century Diebsturm, once a tiny jail.
