After repeated destruction, the present church was built in the Baroque style around 1700. Unusual are the two towers, covered with a gable roof and crowned with battlements.

Be sure to visit the local museum in the castle

Right next to the water wheel there is a Greek restaurant where you can eat well.

The fountain stands on the pretty market square and was built in 1911. Benches in front of the fountain invite you to linger.

This is Karin's standard route

If you have a little time, take a look at the beautiful old town. Greetings Marcus

Due to the patronage of St. Martin is believed to be a very old parish, whose history goes back to the time of Franconian rule. In 1269/71 Wertingen was first referred to as an oppidum, a city. The oldest surviving impression of the city seal from 1297 already contains an image of a church. The seal from 1298 shows a two-towered Romanesque basilica, the towers of which are covered by a tent roof. A similar illustration can also be found on the seal of a document from 1374. After the city burned down in 1462 during an attack by Louis the Rich, the Duke of Bavaria-Landshut, the towers of the church were rebuilt on the Romanesque basement and a new choir was built. This church, built in the Gothic style, was also burned down when the Swedes occupied the city during the Thirty Years' War. In 1648, work began on rebuilding the church in the Baroque style according to the plans of an unknown master builder. Around 1700 a new nave was built, which was decorated with rich stucco decorations by Wessobrunn artists. Source: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Martin_(Wertingen)
