Würzburg. Neumünster

Neumünster Church in Würzburg was built in the 11th century. It is a large Baroque building with a huge dome and sandstone façade which was added in the 18th century. Inside are many works of art, such as the 15th century Man of Sorrow, and a Madonna. Parts of a former cloister remain in a quiet courtyard. People buried here include St. Kilian, St. Kolonat, St. Totnan, and Walther von der Vogelweide. The skulls of the three saints are carried in a procession each year by theological students from the crypt to Würzburg Dom.
