This is the oldest church in Bavaria, built in the early medieval era and redesigned in the Baroque age. The interior features Rococo art at its finest. There is an internal fence for security but it doesn't obscure the views. The side chapel has no fence and had stunning rococo art adorning its ceiling.

The Roman Catholic Collegiate Church of Our Lady of the Old Chapel (short: Collegiate Church of the Old Chapel or Old Chapel) on the Old Kornmarkt in Regensburg is the main church of the collegiate monastery of Our Lady of the Old Chapel, the oldest existing collegiate monastery in Bavaria, and the oldest Church of Regensburg. In terms of art history, it is considered one of the most important rococo churches in Bavaria. According to legend, it is also said to be the oldest church and therefore the mother church of Bavaria, from which the Christianization of the country began, and stands on the site of a Roman temple to Juno. The core of today's building dates back to the Ottonian period, when the collegiate monastery was founded in 1002 by Henry II and his wife Kunigunde. The elevated choir, on the other hand, was only built in the middle of the 15th century and is designed in the late Gothic style. After a thorough redesign in the second half of the 18th century, the rococo style dominates the interior.
