Schulkirche, Baroque church in Amberg, Germany
The Saint Augustine Church features a rectangular structure with a matching choir section, decorated with intricate stucco work and ceiling frescoes.
Wolfgang Dientzenhofer designed the church in 1697, which was consecrated in 1699 and later expanded in 1758 with lateral chapels and a longer choir.
The church walls display paintings of apostles, while the ceiling depicts scenes from the foundation of the Order of the Visitation by artist G.B. Götz.
The Saint Augustine Church houses an organ built in 1760 by Johann Konrad Funtsch, containing 1001 pipes and 19 registers with restorations in 1926 and 1993.
The church interior combines Bohemian-style domes with pointed vault architecture and features stucco decorations representing the four elements and seasons.
