Würzburg.Kollegiatstift Neumünster

Another iconic church building in Würzburg is the New Munster (Neumünster) Collegiate Church (Kollegiatstift Neumünster). This splendid 11th-century Romanesque structure is best known for its remarkably preserved east end and the Baroque west end, built in 1719.Under the dome are a figure of the Virgin and a crucifix, both by Riemenschneider, and in the west crypt is the sarcophagus of the Irish monk St. Kilian. The apostle of the Franks, St. Kilian was murdered here in AD 689 along with his companions.In the former cloister, the Lusamgärtlein, is a memorial stone commemorating Walther von der Vogelweide, Germany's greatest medieval poet, who died in Würzburg in 1230.
