Marienmünster is a hall church in the Late Baroque style with a spacious nave and a prominent tower on the western side. The building features an elegant west facade with decorative cresting and combines open spatial structures with artistic details throughout.
Construction of the current structure began in 1720 under Provost Ivo Bader, with architect Johann Michael Fischer shaping its final form. This partnership left a lasting mark on the region's Baroque architecture.
The interior displays frescoes by Johann Georg Bergmüller depicting Mary with saints, shaping the space as a place of devotion. These paintings create a reverent mood that visitors sense immediately upon entering.
The building is located at Klosterhof 10A and maintains regular opening hours for visits and services. Visitors should note that access may be limited during worship services and masses.
The organ was built in 1739 by Caspar König and shapes the sound of liturgical celebrations to this day. The instrument has undergone multiple restorations and remains a functioning centerpiece of musical expression.
