“A beautiful church”
May 2019
Amazing paintings and fittings in this church. Unfortunately the organ recital for the Saturday we were here was not here. Still worth a look though.
“Stunning interior!”
Jun 2018
From the outside you would expect to find a fairly plain, simple interior, but when you step inside you will definitely be surprised! Munster Unserer Lieben Frau (believe this would translate to Church of Our Lady) is a stunning example of a (Baroque?) Catholic Church, complete with ceiling frescoes, impressive masonry and sculpture and a large organ set above the pews on a balcony. Take a moment to light a candle (for a small donation) in the shrine at the back of the Church, by the statue of Our Lady.

Rococo surprise
Jun 2014 • Couples
Rococo is the name for the final, most exuberant stage in the Baroque. And this church is full of it even if you would not guess so from the outside. Swirling and sweeping curves, pastel colours, a scattering of silly cherubs... it's a love-it-or-hate-it sort of style but I challenge anyone to come out of this church without a big smile and a fuzzy feeling.

Outstanding example of Rococo architecture
May 2014 • Couples
When my husband and I entered this church, we both gasped. It was the most ornate, wonderful example of Rococo architecture we had ever seen. We always enjoy visiting churches throughout the world and we had never seen anything like this. Don't miss it if you are in Lindau.

Stunning Old Minster
Aug 2017 • Couples
This is the Catholic Parish Church of Lindau known as St Marien of Stiftskirche. It originally dates from 810 AD but the current building only dates from 1752. The interior is simply beautiful with stunning Frescos and a magnificent organ. It was a pity it was not being played. The interior was a welcome cool sanctury from the heat outside. The minster was renamed 'Unserer Lieben Frau' on 9 July 2002.

Beautiful, unexpected find
Oct 2013 • Couples
We first tried to go into the church next door but it was locked, so we went into this one. Wow - what a beautiful interior. We had seen the church at Birnau a couple of days before and we expected its beauty, but this one was totally unknown to us.

Beautiful murals

The inside of the church was simply stunning for me. The murals are amazing and the organ is really impressive. A must see in my opinion.

Beautiful church.
Oct 2016 • Family
This is a working church. Worth seeing. I wouldn't travel to Lindau just to see this church but is definitely worth a look given it is right off the main square. Won't take long.

Church is not a museum!
Sep 2015 • Business
I trust a God, yes i am.

Europe has a plenty of beautiful churches, but only a few people attending the Sunday service.

This medieval Cathedral is one of them.
Built between 1748-1752, this renaissance architecture is a masterpiece, i can not find them in my home country.

For me it is #1 place to visit in Lindau

It's enough to make you want to be a Cathollic
May 2015 • Couples
Beautiful, cheerful and exuberant church with fabulous paintings and a spectacular organ with a gilded figure of King David perched on top. Really lovely place . I've graded it 'very good' rather than excellent only because it's very low-key and there did not seem to be any tourist info to hand. No matter - well worth a visit to drink in the soul of the place,

Spiritual Sunday Evening
Jul 2013 • Family
Sunday evening sung vesper and holy mass.
Even though the vesper was attended by relatively few people, it was very spiritual and impressive for us, being visitors who came there (as well as to Lindau) for the first time. The church interior is beautiful and after a lovely day in the town it was the right place where we could thank our Lord for such a beautiful Sunday spent at the lake.
