Basilica by night
The Basilika Sankt Johann is another fine building from the Baroque architect Friedrich-Joachim Stengel. It was built in the period 1754-1758, as the Catholics in Sankt Johann were once again allowed a church, a hundred years after the Reformation. Here it is in its night time colours.
