Pfarrkirche St. Peter und Paul, Baroque parish church in Mittenwald, Germany.

The Catholic church features a prominent tower decorated with frescoes depicting Saints Peter and Paul, complemented by red Veronese marble architectural elements.

Josef Schmuzer designed and constructed the church between 1734 and 1749, commissioned by Johann Theodor of Bavaria, Prince-Bishop of Freising.

The interior displays numerous ceiling frescoes by Matthäus Günther illustrating the lives of Saints Peter and Paul across the vaulted surfaces.

The church serves approximately 4,400 parish members and remains open throughout the day for prayers, visits, and regular liturgical celebrations.

The red Veronese marble used in construction arrived via the ancient Roman trade route Via Claudia Augusta, establishing Mittenwald as a trade center.
