The St. Peter und Paul - the catholic parish church of Oberstaufen - was built in 1389 on the ruins of a medieval collegiate church. In its turbulent past, the church saw further destruction when it fell victim to fire at the end of the 17th century and in the 19th century. The present church was built in the neo-Gothic style between 1859 and 1863. The St. Peter und Paul impresses with a 65 meters high tower with foundations dating back to the 13th century, meter-high statues of the crucifixion group from the late Gothic period and a huge image of St. Christopher on the façade. The ornate pulpit inside the church was also built in the neo-Gothic style in the mid-19th century.
