Siebenschläferkirche, Religious monument in Rotthof, Bavaria, Germany.

The Siebenschläferkirche in Rotthof is a church whose high altar, made by Johann Baptist Modler in 1758, is built up with crates, tuff and shells to imitate a grotto lit by coloured light. The central dark relief panel is framed in reddish marble, with a golden sunburst and dove above, white putti, and stacked reddish columns topped by white statues. A pale marble font stands to the left.

The church arose from a misinterpretation of two Roman gravestones with carved figures, which were mistakenly seen as depicting the legendary sleepers. This confusion ultimately led to the founding of the church at this location.

The church takes its name from the Seven Sleepers, legendary young men from Christian tradition who according to the story fled persecution and slept for a long time. Visitors can see how this tale is reflected in the building's decoration and religious purpose today.

The church stands in Rotthof, a district of Ruhstorf an der Rott in the Passau district. Two Roman-era gravestones are set into the outer wall, and the interior is entered from the village side. The 2004 renovation uncovered skeletons and further Roman gravestones in and around the foundations.

During renovation work in 2004, workers discovered multiple skeletons, additional Roman gravestones, and remains of a Celtic farmstead beneath the foundations. These findings show that the site had been inhabited since ancient times, long before the church was built.
