    The Church of St. Peter dates back to the 8th century and is particularly worth seeing.
    In the 13th to 15th centuries it was painted with frescoes depicting important biblical scenes in the form of a picture Bible.

      The first documented mention of a church in Fischingen - dedicated to Saint Peter - goes back to the year 772: "sacrasancta eclesia sancti Petri qui est constructa in villa, qui dicitur Fisgincas".

        The church is located in the village center of Fischingen.
        The church tower stands on rocky ground, but the rest of the structure is on clay. As a result, the building is not stable enough, so cracks in the masonry and damage to the roof of the nave continue to occur.
        This was already the reason in the 19th century for inclined pillars to be raised next to the church portal to support the masonry.
