St. Andreas

St. Andreas is a Gothic parish church in Aying featuring a prominent bell tower that rises above the surrounding buildings. The structure displays typical Bavarian religious architecture with natural stone walls and a steeply pitched roof characteristic of the region.

The church was built in the Middle Ages and has shaped Aying's townscape as a religious center ever since. Over the centuries it underwent several renovations but retained its Gothic character and role as the parish church.

The church has shaped community life in Aying for centuries, serving as the setting for celebrations and ceremonies that mark the local calendar. Its interior reflects traditional Catholic customs, with altars and furnishings created by regional craftspeople over time.

Access is straightforward from Aying train station, which is served by S-Bahn trains from Munich, followed by a brief walk to the church square. The building sits centrally in the village and is easy to spot from most paths through town.

The bell in the tower spire dates from the 15th century and still shapes the acoustic character of the village with its sound. This distinctive tone remains part of daily life for people in the surrounding area.
