    Lorenzkirche

    Lorenzkirche is chock-full of artistic highlights. Check out the 15th-century tabernacle in the left aisle - the delicate carved strands wind up to the vaulted ceiling. Remarkable also are the stained glass (including a rose window 9m in diameter) and Veit Stoss' Engelsgruss (Annunciation), a wooden carving with life-size figures, suspended above the high altar. North of the church, the Tugendbrunnen (1589) is a fountain featuring the seven Virtues with a figure of Justice looking on.
