The large Gothic hall church was begun in its present form as the church of the Frauenstift auf dem Berge around 1290 and consecrated in 1325. Not only the building, but also its interior is a listed building. The depiction of the Virgin Mary, the late Gothic carved altar, the sacrament house, the altar pyramid and the double sculpture of the Virgin Mary are just the most important of the many valuable objects. They originate from the various historical and liturgical contexts that the church has experienced over the centuries. Next to the church is the monastery's former curia house. Built in 1730, the representative half-timbered house is now used as a rectory and parish office.
