    A very big highlight of the Franconian baroque. Particularly worth seeing: the large rosette above the west portal.

      Important sights inside the church are:

      The colorful window rosette on the west side of the nave with a diameter of almost eight meters. It is considered a continuation of the rose windows of the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris. Due to severe weathering, the rosette was replaced in the 19th century by a copy that is true to the original. The original is in the Bavarian National Museum in Munich;
      The front of the rococo organ from 1743 by J. Jh. Seuffert with carvings by A. Gutmann;
      The choir stalls and the high altar from the years 1778/80.
      Opening times of the monastery church: April 15 to October 31: 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. and 2 p.m. to 6 p.m., free admission, closed from November to March.

        Unfortunately, I found the door closed.
        I checked the opening times online:
        The Abbey Church is open to visitors from Palm Sunday to All Saints' Day from 10:00 - 12:00 and 14:00 - 18:00.
