Facts and practical information

The listed Children's Teaching Church is the former monastery church of the Memmingen Antonites in the Upper Swabian town of Memmingen in Bavaria. Built as a pseudo-basilica, the church was dedicated to St. Anthony and was called Antoniuskapelle until the Reformation. Its present name comes from its use as a teaching place for children during the service in St. Martin's Church opposite. Today it is best known for its frescoes by Bernhard Strigel and its neo-Gothic furnishings by Leonhard Vogt. It was used as a simultaneous church by the Evangelical Lutheran Church and the Syrian Orthodox Church of Antioch until its renovation in 2009. The last extensive renovation took place from 2009 to 2011.
