Tips

This church looks rather inconspicuous from the outside, but is a real highlight.
You can borrow an audio guide for different languages, but you are expected to put a donation in the offering box.
You then learn something about Saint Simon, who courageously cared for those suffering from the plague during the plague in 1492 and who finally died of the plague himself.
But the history of the church itself is also sad: During the Swedish wars, the previous church at this point, including the monastery, was torn down by its own population. One had to prevent the Swedes from taking the abbey and building it into a counter-bastion against the royal palace opposite.

A beautiful baroque church with a richly decorated interior.
