Heilig-Geist-Spitalkirche

This tiny church is apparently the most photographed church in Fussen - not surprising really. It served the adjoining hospital.

After an evening meal we happen to be walking past when we overheard a concert of Baroque music from within the Monastry - heavenly!

Bavaria Photos:-

Fussen is set in the foothills of the Alps with spectacular scenery - rolling green farmland, cows with bells & quaint red-roofed farm houses.

 

Fussen is an old town which is now very tourist-oriented. I loved the painted houses. Needless to say being German, everywhere was spick & span.

If you are wanting a holiday in Bavaria, I would strongly advise choosing Fussen as your base.
