St. Peter's Church
Founded in the 13th century, St. Peter's Church burned down several times with the town in 1512, 1628 and 1713. It was during its reconstruction in the 18th century that the tower took on an octagonal shape. In 1920, a lightning strike caused a fire and the baroque dome of the tower collapsed. The lantern of the tower was replaced by a tent roof, which was intended as a temporary solution, but which still gives the church its typical appearance today.
