Pfarrkirche St. Martin

Pfarrkirche St. Martin is a church in Stiefenhofen, Bavaria, featuring a tall spire and a Gothic choir section with Art Nouveau details. The hall church structure contains an original 1913 organ that was expanded to 28 registers in 1962.

The oldest preserved sections are the tower, documented from 1476, and the choir built around 1500. The church developed over many centuries with later additions reflecting architectural changes in style.

The interior features gilded religious statues, including Saint Martin on horseback and the coronation of Mary. These sculptures shape the spiritual appearance of the church and were created over a decade starting in 1942.

The church is accessible for visits and hosts regular religious services that shape its daily use. Visitors should check opening times in advance and respect any ongoing ceremonies.

Stained glass windows designed by August Pacher in 1911 depict saints and Christmas scenes above the south portal. These artworks are frequently overlooked yet bring delicate colored light into the interior.
