The 3-aisle Gothic hall church on Our Lady’s Square is located very centrally, and remains much the same is it was in the Middle Ages. The stone relief over the Three Kings Portal from about 1425 is considered to be an extremely important work of art. The Church of Our Lady (Liebfrauenkirche) was burned out in 1944 and was rebuilt by 1956.
