Dozens of coats of arms are depicted on stained glass windows, tombstones, woodwork and funeral plates. We will search together... They belong to popes, bishops and especially noble castle lords and benefactors. Who are they? Where did these lords and their families live? When were they placed? Why are they depicted here? What is written on these coats of arms and what motto is attached to them?
Guided visit Saturday at 3pm and Sunday at 11am, 3pm and 4.30pm.
