Jon Searles' photos with the keyword: St. Peter

This is the Peterskirche, or St. Peter's Church, not far from St. Stephen's Cathedral. Completed in 1733, the Peterskirche remains an active Roman Catholic church to this day.

The current Alter Peter Kirche, constructed in 1368, is the oldest church in Munich, but actually replaced an even older church constructed on the site in 1290, which in turn had replaced an even older one from 1158, leading some historians to believe that it may have been the starting point for the city. The spire, which is clearly not gothic, was added in the 17th Century. This photo, incidentally, is gloomy because it was raining (notice the umbrellas). This was what the weather was like for most of my visit.
