Stiftskirche St. Cyriakus

Stiftskirche St. Cyriakus is a Romanesque church building in Frose featuring substantial pillars that support the main chamber. These pillars display carved capitals, and the structure contains stained glass windows designed in a Romanesque style dating from the late 1800s.

The building traces its origins to the tenth century, when it was established under the rule of significant regional leaders. Its development reflects how religious institutions gained influence and importance during that period.

This church serves as a stop on the Romanesque Road, drawing visitors interested in regional architecture and heritage. The building demonstrates how important religious structures were to local communities and their role in shaping the character of the region.

The building is accessible to visitors during warmer months with regular opening hours. Group tours can be arranged in advance by contacting the local parish office.

A westwork containing a nuns' gallery remained hidden for centuries before being uncovered in the early 2000s. This rediscovered structure reveals architectural details from an earlier period of the building's history.
