Church with a roman bell tower, remarkable stained glass windows and a beautiful organ, one of the most important religious buildings in Alsace.

Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1930, this Gothic-style abbey was built between the late 13th and early 14th centuries. Among the abbey's furnishings are a chandelier, a copy of a famous 11th-century piece, and a large 14th-century fresco depicting Saint Christopher. There is also a statue of the good King Dagobert, founder of the building, as well as fine sculptures and wall paintings dating from the 14th century.

Дуже старовинне місце

Mit an Sicherheit grenzender Wahrscheinlichkeit ist allseits unstreitig, daß es sich bei diesem Gotteshaus um die bedeutendste Sehenswürdigkeit der Stadt handelt. Außergewöhnlich sind bereits die Ausmaße von Kirchenschiff samt Turm in der relativ kleinen Stadt, was darin liegt, daß es sich um die Kirche der ehemaligen Abtei handelt.
Trotz der zahlreichen Besucher herrscht eine ruhige, ehrwürdige Atmosphäre, die zum Innerhalten und ein Gebet einlädt.
Zur Vermeidung von Wiederholungen sei auf die zahlreichen, einschlägigen Ausführungen im Internet hinsichtlich der einzelnen Kunstschätze verwiesen!
Ein Muß für jeden Besucher Wissembourgs!
