Kapuzinerkloster St. Sebastian, Augsburg

The St. Sebastian Church features three naves with a recessed choir and roof turret, constructed between 1906 and 1907 in Romanesque Revival style.

The original St. Sebastian Chapel, built by Elias Holl between 1611 and 1612, was destroyed by Swedish troops in 1632 during the Thirty Years' War.

The interior walls display Art Nouveau frescoes and house a life-sized Madonna statue by Hans Degler, along with relics of Saint Wolfhard and Saint Lucius.

The church now serves both the St. Georg parish and the Croatian church community, with monthly services conducted in the Slavic-Byzantine rite in German language.

The monastery grounds remain enclosed on three sides by MAN engineering company facilities, while the fourth side borders Sebastian Street.
