The detour to the impressive monastery on the lake shore is worthwhile.

The Minster of St. Mary and St. Mark is the Romanesque former monastery church of Reichenau Monastery and today's Catholic parish church[1] in the Mittelzell district on the island of Reichenau in Lake Constance (Untersee). This minster was the abbey church of the important Benedictine abbey (Latin: Monasterium Augiensis) and is the largest of the three Romanesque churches on the island.

On the occasion of the monastery's 1,300th anniversary, Pope Francis elevated the minster to a minor basilica in April 2024.[2] Since 2000, the monastery island of Reichenau, including the minster, has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site; in 2003, ten major works of the Reichenau manuscripts were added to the UNESCO Memory of the World Register as "culturally and historically unique documents that exemplify the collective memory of humanity."[3][4] To mark the 1,300th anniversary, the Great State Exhibition of Baden-Württemberg 2024, entitled World Heritage of the Middle Ages, showed manuscripts and other evidence from the island in the Archaeological State Museum of Baden-Württemberg in Konstanz on Lake Constance and on Reichenau itself from April to October 2024.[5][6] For the Reichenau Minster, a citizens' project group has created the "Reichenau Book of Solidarity 2024" as a continuation of the Reichenau Book of Brotherhood of 824.
