St. Gallus, Romanesque church building in Augsburg, Germany

The St. Gallus Church features Romanesque architecture with stone walls, rounded arches, and a compact structure situated on Gallusbergle hill.

Built around 900 CE on the remains of a Roman Mercury temple, the church received consecration from Pope Leo IX during his journey in 1051.

The church maintains a collection of religious artifacts, including an altar from 1760 displaying a statue of Saint Gallus with biblical inscriptions.

Located at Gallusplatz 2 in Augsburg, the church opens exclusively on Sundays and underwent complete restoration between 1999 and 2005.

Archaeological excavations beneath St. Gallus revealed foundations of the largest Roman basilica discovered east of the Rhine River.
