1. Maria de Victoria Church

The church of Maria de Victoria, also known as the Asam Kirche, is a stunning baroque church. Expecting a church more like the Asam Kirche in Munich which focuses more on these artisans' Baroque plasterwork, I was surprised to find a study in perspective in this medium size church. Confronted with a set of design challenges in what is basically a rectangular church, the brothers worked out a set of multiple perspective points that makes a celestial vision absolutely pop out at the viewer. This is coupled with clever plasterwork along the edges of the ceiling which integrate it with the walls to smoothly transition their work into the plain walls. The altar is a nice baroque composition, but the "professors" Seating along the walls of this Jesuit church are extremely well crafted.
In the the small treasury in the back of the church there is a magnificent monstrance made in Augsburg that commemorates the Battle of Leponto. While such a warlike scene that is somewhat jarring when seen on such a religious article, I guess it's understandable after such a significant turning point in the then-ongoing war against Islamic expansion. In a somewhat similar vein, the warrior-leader Tilly's crucifix in silver and ivory is also kept in the treasury.
Admission is €3. I was allowed to use the English language guidebook to guide my visit. There really is no parking close to the church, but it is a short walk from the large public parking lots. The docents at the church were friendly.

Overall the museum was okay. You start at the beginning on the upper level and walk your way through the company history. It started off good with excellent displays of original cars in the late 1800's, early 1900's and progressed. Somehow they lost many years from 1980 through 2010. Only a few cars. Then you had a couple of cars in all aluminum bodies on the main floor including my favorite the R8 V10. I guess the price was so cheap what can one expect. The restaurant was excellent....I would go back for the great selection of food.

This is an excellent military museum. However, German is used throughout though this for the history lover will not be a problem as the visual displays are very easily understood; though a short guide in English would obviously be very welcome. Their Great War exhibition is one of the best I have ever seen.

Imposing just as it should be. Go inside and you will feel the graneur of the edifice. Try to make it for a service with organ - it will contribute to the overall impression.

It is a must to see in Ingolstadt. While having a walk, put it in your program. In any case Ingolstadt is not that big and can fit in the schedule.

Didn't go inside but it looks very nice on the outside. We sat on some seats about a hundred feet away to look at the building and took some photos.
