Klosterkirche St. Heinrich, Medieval monastery church in Pirna, Germany.
The church features a two-nave Gothic hall design with stone vaults, decorated walls, and a tower positioned between the nave and choir.
Dominican monks from Leipzig established the monastery around 1300, expanding it during the 14th century into a substantial religious complex.
The interior displays medieval wall paintings from 1400, including representations of the Last Judgment and the Virgin Mary with benefactors.
The church opens its doors to visitors through a passage from Breite Strasse, offering guided tours of its architectural elements and artwork.
The structure contains a 6-meter-high standing cross created by sculptor Friedrich Press in 1973, dominating the sacred space.
