Had a short stop just south of Garmisch-Partenkirchen when driving from Sweden to Italy.
Interior of the Salvatorkirche (Church of the Savior), a Greek Orthodox church with a slightly convoluted history:
Built in late Gothic style in 1493 as a cemetery church for the relocated cemetery of the Frauenkirche.
With the secularization in 1803 it should be destroyed, but it was used as important storage, so destruction was avoided.
In 1806 it was gifted to the Lutheran community in Munich, but due to continued usage as depot the Lutheran community could not use it. With the decision to build the Lutheran St. Matthäus church in 1825 the Lutherans returned St. Salvator to the crown.
In 1828 King Ludwig I of Bavaria gave it to the Greek Orthodox community for use, but the church building remained property of the state.
After this it remained Greek Orthodox and was renovated multiple times, most recently some interior refurbishing happened in 2022.

Kräftiges Schneetreiben am Nachmittag, da darf man nicht lange überlegen. Ich packte schnell meine Kamera aber nach einer Stunde taute es schon wieder.
Die Fränkische Schweiz, eine Region in Oberfranken (Bayern), ist eine charakteristische Berg- und Hügellandschaft mit markanten Felsformationen und Höhlen, sowie vielen Burgen und Ruinen und nicht zu vergessen Brauereien.
Franconian Switzerland is a region in Northern Bavaria. As several other mountainous landscapes in the German-speaking lands, e.g. Holstein Switzerland, Märkische Schweiz, or Pommersche Schweiz, Franconian Switzerland was given its name by Romantic artists and poets in the 19th century who compared the landscape to Switzerland.
Never mind - just wait for the next one.
