St. Paul, Passau, Baroque church at Steinweg, Passau, Germany.

The pink and cream colored church stands at the northern edge of the Roman wall, featuring a spire and ornate architectural details.

Originally constructed in 1050, the church was rebuilt between 1667 and 1678 after fires in 1512 and 1662 destroyed previous structures.

The interior displays a high altar from 1700 with Franz Tamm's painting depicting the decapitation of the Apostle Paul.

Located at Steinweg 15 in Passau's old town, the church marks the entrance through the Paulusbogen, the city's oldest preserved gate.

Swiss architect Carlo Antonio Carlone designed the interior with pale walls in pastel pink contrasted by black carved details and gilded capitals.
