Pfarrkirche St. Peter und Paul, Baroque parish church in Mittenwald, Germany.
Pfarrkirche St. Peter und Paul is a Catholic church in Mittenwald featuring Baroque design with a tower adorned in red Veronese marble elements. The structure showcases elaborate decorative work across its facade and tower, creating a prominent landmark within the town.
Construction took place between 1734 and 1749 under the design of Josef Schmuzer, who worked for the Prince-Bishop Johann Theodor of Bavaria. The completion of this building marked a turning point in the town's development.
The interior displays painted ceiling scenes by Matthäus Günther showing moments from the lives of Saints Peter and Paul. These works form the visual backdrop for daily prayers and religious gatherings in the main church space.
The church is open during daylight hours for visitors to pray, look around, and attend services. The interior layout makes it easy to move through and appreciate the decorations at your own pace.
The red Veronese marble used for decoration was transported along the ancient Roman trade route Via Claudia Augusta. This reveals how the town has long been positioned along important trading pathways.
