    St. Valentine's Church was a popular pilgrimage church of the former Augustinian Canonry of Ranshofen. The building was largely constructed in the 15th century. The sacristy was added in the Baroque style in the 17th century.

    The austere Gothic exterior contrasts with the extremely welcoming Baroque interior. The stucco work on the vaults, created using illusionary painting, and the frescoes depicting the legend of St. Valentine were created by the Munich court painter Martin Heigl. The four-bay, wide nave is separated from the choir by a fresco bearing the inscription "Deo Ter Optimo Maximo" ("to the thrice best and greatest God").

    The Baroque high altar is the work of Hans Waldenburger. The altarpiece "Valentine Blessing the Sick" was painted by Philipp Ruckerpaur from Sarleinsbach. The coat of arms of the Augustinian Canons can be found at the apex of the picture. The eight legend paintings in the choir, dating from the second half of the 17th century, are also of particular historical interest. Each painting depicts events from the life of St. Valentine in illustrations and verses. At the same time, the unknown painter depicted contemporary views of the city and landscape in the background.

      Located very close to St. Valentine's Church in Haselbach. Nice the newly designed Augenbründl.
