The church has now stood for over 500 years and is still well maintained and preserved. A visit is worthwhile, but is not easy in Corona times

In the church you can see, among other things, the Apostles' Farewell Altar by Tilman Riemenschneider from 1491 and a copy of a pot helmet from the 14th century (the original is in the museum).

There are guided tours from May to October on the 1st Sunday of the month (2 p.m. - 4 p.m.) or upon prior request from the Kornburg parish office (09129/4246).

It's not so common for a Christian church to be dedicated to the entire heaven of saints (All Saints' Day). Usually, one (or occasionally two) named saints hold the patronage of a church—and thus usually also the patronage of the parish or town in which it is located. The church festival of "All Saints' Day" (in the Catholic Church with the liturgical status of a high feast, in the Protestant Church as a memorial day) has been celebrated on November 1st at least since 835 AD.

A pagan custom can be seen as a model for this practice of dedication to all saints, according to which central temples already existed in pre-Christian times that were universally dedicated to all deities (pantheon). In Rome stands the – probably world-famous – Pantheon: formerly a pagan temple, now a Christian place of worship and at the same time one of the most popular tourist destinations in the “Eternal City” on the Tiber (if you are interested see =>> komoot.com/de-de/highlight/130254 ); so to speak, the original Roman church for the patronage of this local place of worship.
