    Wonderful old Romanesque church, unusually built in brick (instead of sandstone as usual), apart from the west facade.

      The monastery has existed since at least the 9th century. The place did not exist at that time. The monastery changed hands several times and also belonged to Strasbourg - to finance the construction of the cathedral there.

      In 1802/03, secularization ended the existence of the Schwarzach monastery; Baden took over the property and building complex. Parts of the abbot's jewels were reused in the Baden crown. Apart from the church, all that remains of the former monastery complex are a few administrative and commercial buildings with the monastery portal from the years 1761 to 1790.
      The current cathedral is the fourth church there and was completed around 1190. The church is the only large Romanesque building made of brick on the Upper Rhine. The older parts of the building are made of red sandstone. The current interior design is the result of a purification in the 1960s. You can read more here: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Münster_Schwarzach


      But it's better if you drive there and read the information boards on site. That way you can also experience the place. It's also worth it because of the place, the monastery garden, etc.

        Nice place to find a little peace - before the Münster-Cafe offers a rest.
