St. Jodok Church

Description

St. Jodok Church was founded in 1338 by the Duke Henrik XIV. The church was not yet fully completed, when it was destroyed by fire in 1403. During the reconstruction the chapels were extended (1435-1450). St. Jodok represents the Gothic style with late Gothic (15th century) and 19th century additions.

Of the many outstanding grave stones the particularly noteworthy are the tomb of Heinrich von Staudach (1483) in the crypt and the Peter von Altenhaus (1513 by Stephan Rottaler) under the gallery. The large baptismal font dates from c. 1520.
