Jesuitenkirche.



Redesigned between 1703 and 1705 by the Jesuit architect Andrea Pozzo. The facade dominates its square, a bold statement, which reflects the Jesuits role as one of the principle forces behind the C16th Catholic Reformation. The facade is a typical Germanic Baroque creation with a symmetrical ABABA rhythm.
