St. Michael und St. Gertraud Neustadt am Main

The church features a basilica design with two towers, including a north tower from the 11th century standing separate from the main walls.

After a lightning strike destroyed the previous church in 1857, the new building was reconstructed in Neo-Romanesque style and consecrated in December 1879.

The apse displays a Madonna from the Riemenschneider workshop, with statues of Archangel Michael and Benedict of Nursia on both sides.

The church belongs to the Parish Community of 12 Apostles at the Gate to Spessart, which encompasses a network of 15 churches.

A lapidarium above the chapter house exhibits Carolingian and Romanesque architectural elements along with sacred vessels from the former monastery.
