Niedermünster, Regensburg

Niedermünster, once a collegiate church for noblewomen, is a fascinating historical site in Regensburg. The church itself is a blend of Romanesque and Gothic architecture, with a serene interior that includes a high altar and medieval frescoes. What makes Niedermünster truly unique is the archaeological site beneath the church. Excavations have uncovered remains from the Roman fort of Castra Regina, early medieval buildings, and the foundations of earlier churches. Visitors can walk on glass floors over the ruins, seeing ancient walls, mosaics, and burial sites. This underground museum offers a tangible connection to Regensburg's 2,000-year history. The church also houses a small museum with artifacts from the site.
