St. Johannes am Vorderanger

St. Johannes am Vorderanger, Baroque church in Landsberg am Lech, Germany.

St. Johannes am Vorderanger is a baroque church building in Landsberg am Lech featuring an oval interior supported by eight pillars. Its layout combines a rectangular nave with a semicircular choir section that forms the eastern end.

A church was first documented at this location in 1219, with construction of the current building beginning in 1458 under an abbot. The structure grew into a major religious center over the following centuries.

The church displays numerous religious artworks throughout its interior spaces. Visitors can find works by local craftsmen across several centuries that reflect the artistic traditions of the region.

The best way to explore the interior is to walk slowly and observe details on the walls and ceiling. Entry is through the main door, and visitors should take time to discover different corners and side areas.

The church tower contains one of Bavaria's oldest bells, cast back in 1417. Nearly 100 preserved gravestones from different historical periods rest here, offering visitors a direct connection to the area's past.
