The reconstruction of the church in the authentic strict Romanesque forms in the style of the 12th century was led by Rudolf Schwarz. He uncovered the buried pillar bases, reinstalled the side apses in the transept, added a crossing tower and a baptistery to the north aisle. The floor plan bears features of the Carolingian mother monastery, Stift St. Alban in front of Mainz. In this reconstructed interior there are only a few pieces of historical equipment (sandstone lectern and sculptures from the 15th/16th centuries).
