Hofkirche Mariä Himmelfahrt, Court church in Neuburg an der Donau, Germany

The Hofkirche Mariä Himmelfahrt stands as a Catholic church building with a prominent west facade and tower completed in 1624 by architects Johann Alberthal and Antonio Serro.

Originally constructed between 1607 and 1608, the church transformed from Protestant to Catholic in 1613 under Prince Wolfgang Wilhelm during the Counter-Reformation period.

The interior contains substantial artistic elements, including large statues of twelve apostles, Jesuit saints, and elaborate stucco work created by the Castelli brothers between 1616 and 1619.

The church maintains regular opening hours for visitors to explore its architectural features and houses an organ with 38 stops across three manuals built by Maximilian Offner.

Two crypts exist within the church: a small one containing seven Wittelsbach family members and a larger one housing remains of nearly fifty Jesuit fathers.
