The Amsoldingen Basilica, attributed to Rudolf II of Burgundy and Berta of Alamannia, was built around 1000 on the site of an earlier 7th-century church and shows Lombard architectural influences. Originally lacking a tower and transept, it later gained a tower in place of the southern apse, and its collegiate chapter was dissolved in 1484. The church underwent Gothic modifications, became a Pietist center under Samuel Lutz (1726–1738), and was renovated in 1978–1980; its crypt includes Roman spolia, and its stained glass windows by Max Brunner depict the Trinity.
