This church in Baden Wurttemberg qualifies for inclusion because of its rococo make over 1769-73 by with paintings by Andreas Meinrad von Au and stucco by Johann Jakob Schwarzmann.. This makes it the last rococo church in Upper Swabia. The Baroque St. John Nepomuk Chapel ( Nepomuk Chapel ) was built in 1732-1739 as an annex to the Gothic church under the patronage of the Prince Froben Ferdinand von Fürstenberg-Meßkirch with plans by Johann Caspar Bagnato and the Asam brothers (Cosmas Damian and Egid Quirin) around relics of St John Nepomuk.
The church is adjacent to the Renaissance palace and my memory is jogged by this little video. Also shown is the exterior of the St John Nepomuk chapel, the most famous part of the church.
