The Wasserkirche (Water Church) originally stood on a small island where, according to legend, the city's patron saints Felix and Regula were executed by the Romans.
The late Gothic church was completed towards the end of the 15th century and was considered particularly holy. During the Reformation, it was therefore denounced as a "temple of idols." To prevent anyone from being tempted to reintroduce the cult of saints, a warehouse and later the city library were established in the church.
