Sanctuary Steinhausen, Baroque church in Bad Schussenried, Germany

Sanctuary Steinhausen is a Baroque church in Bad Schussenried featuring an oval floor plan, symmetrical architecture, a bell tower, dome, and large windows that provide balanced natural lighting throughout the interior.

The Baroque church was built from 1728 to 1733 for the Imperial Abbey of Schussenried under Abbot Didacus Ströbele, replacing a smaller Marian church first documented around 1275. The foundation stone was laid on 8 August 1728, and the church was consecrated on 5 May 1733. The grace image was moved to the abbey in 1728 and returned in 1735 in a procession said to have drawn 20,000 pilgrims.

The church displays architectural elements from the Wessobrunner School, featuring elaborate stucco decorations and ceiling paintings by the Zimmermann brothers that define the interior.

Access to the church is currently only through the cemetery entrance on Dominikus-Zimmermann Street. Visitors should check opening times before visiting, as the church may be closed at times due to restoration work.

The organ was built in 1849 by Engelfried von Mühringen and installed in the surviving 1732 case. In 1975 the Reiser Orgelbau workshop of Biberach an der Riß restored it; it has 1,412 pipes in 25 stops. Three of the four 18th-century bells were requisitioned in World War II, but one returned from Hamburg's bell cemetery; three new bells were hung in 1956.
