Peterskirche, Romanesque church and war memorial in Lindau, Germany
The Peterskirche features a massive, tall, windowless tower that intersects diagonally with the choir space and nave walls of the church structure.
Initially serving as Lindau's parish church until 1180, the eastern sections of the current building date from the mid-12th century, with western additions in 1470.
The interior walls display the Lindau Passion frescoes, including scenes from Christ's Passion, Saint Peter, and Saint Christopher, attributed to Hans Holbein the Elder.
Memorial plaques at the entrance commemorate Lindau soldiers from World Wars I and II, along with displaced persons and victims of Nazi persecution.
The church tower predates the main structure and was constructed for defensive purposes due to its location near the original harbor of Lindau.
