Kreuzhofkapelle, Romanesque church near Danube River in Regensburg, Germany

The Kreuzhofkapelle features a nave with ribbed vaults, a west gallery, and a semi-circular apse with round-arched windows set behind a stepped chorbogen.

The chapel grounds witnessed significant events in 1156 when Emperor Frederick Barbarossa held a court session that led to the creation of the Duchy of Austria.

The building represents a typical Romanesque country church of Upper Palatinate with its distinctive upper floor designed for non-religious purposes and practical functions.

The church entrance is located on the south side through a double-staged round-arched portal, while the upper level is accessed via a narrow staircase in the western wall.

Archaeological excavations revealed continuous settlement traces from the 5th millennium BC, including remains from the Neolithic, Urnfield, and Hallstatt periods.
