Steingaden Abbey, Romanesque monastery in Steingaden, Germany.
The monumental stone structures of Steingaden Abbey feature thick walls, rounded arches, and a bell tower rising above the Bavarian landscape.
Founded in 1147 by Welf VI, Duke of Bavaria's son, the abbey underwent transformations from Romanesque to Gothic and later incorporated Baroque elements.
The abbey church contains medieval frescoes, religious artifacts, and architectural elements that reflect the evolution of German religious art through centuries.
Visitors can access the abbey through guided tours departing from the main entrance, with parking facilities located 100 meters from the site.
The burial site of the Welf dynasty members includes remaining heraldic decorations despite the destruction of the original noble tombs.
