 church, Roman Catholic church

Built in 1696 at the location of an inn where the first plague victim (a trader visiting the city) died. The church was founded as a "thank you" for saving the city. Over 900 people died during the plague, half the city population at the time.
The church organs were made in 1714. A baroque altar and other historical features complete the interior.
