    Hiking

    Tiefenpolz, St. Martin
    It is relatively new in terms of its structural fabric in large parts, as it was decided around 140 years ago to significantly expand it as the central church of the parish and to build a larger nave. The year 1874 on the side door is a reminder of this.

    In the oldest part of the Tiefenpölz church, the choir, the altar contains a picture of the church's patron saint, St. Martin. Martin is not depicted here, as is usual, dividing his cloak, but the local depiction shows the saint in old age, saying goodbye to his congregation. The model for this depiction is on the main altar in St. Martin's Church in Bamberg. St. Martin's cloak-dividing has found its place in the St. Martin's play, which takes place every year on the patron saint's day.
