The St. Laurentiuskirche in Thurnau is connected to the castle by a wooden bridge. In this way, the lords of the castle were able to reach the two-story patron box inside the church dry-footed. Magnificent carvings, baroque stucco work and Pietist ceiling paintings testify to rule and belief.

Beautiful old church in the heart of Thurnau. It is connected to the castle by a wooden bridge.

Quite a rare architectural masterpiece; a connection between the castle building and the church at a dizzy height made entirely of wood.
