Digital Church Guide

Kloster Speinshart offers a digital church guide that allows visitors to explore the monastery church and selected monastic spaces independently and at their own pace.

The guide combines an audio tour with an illustrated digital companion, providing insight into the history, architecture and spiritual significance of the site. Both the audio guide and the digital content are available in German and English. An interactive floor plan enables users to navigate the church interior and access individual stations directly.

“With the digital church guide, we are creating a contemporary access point to our spiritual and cultural heritage”, says Abbot Emeritus Hermann Josef Kugler.

The digital guide is provided via the art:guide app, which features a wide range of cultural and heritage sites. A printed church guide published by Schnell & Steiner remains available on site. Personal guided tours can also be arranged on request.

We greatly appreciate this initiative by our partners at the monastery and are delighted that it also enables our international guests to discover the rich heritage of Speinshart.
