| Rottenbuch Abbey (Kloster Rottenbuch), founded as an Augustinian monastery in 1073, was constructed between 1085 and 1125 in the Romanesque style. The design of a crossing transept and free-standing tower is unusual for a Bavarian church. Rottenbuch was a center of papal loyalty during the Investiture Controversy. In the 18th century the medieval interior of the church was redecorated in the ornate High Baroque style. |
