Parish Church of St. Kosmas and Damian
The monastery church of the former imperial abbey Gutenzell and today's parish church of St. Kosmas and Damian in Gutenzell is essentially medieval and was continuously rebuilt and refurbished until the baroque period . The last major renovation from 1755 to 1756 was carried out by the Wessobrunn plasterer Franz Xaver Feuchtmayer the Elder, including plans by Dominikus Zimmermann , whose daughter Maria Alexandra was prioress at the time and abbess of the monastery from 1759–1776 . The frescoes in the church were made by Johann Georg Dieffenbrunner , the pulpit (1756) by Stephan Luidl. Luidl also made the high altar (1762), probably based on a design by Dominikus Zimmermann.
Baroque nativity scene
Every year, from Christmas to Candlemas (February 2nd), a large baroque nativity scene is exhibited in the church , made by the Cistercian women between 1704 and 1750. The nativity scene, which consists of around 200 figures, shows seven scenes: the birth of Christ with the adoration of the shepherds , procession and arrival of the wise men from the east , flight to Egypt , the Bethlemite child murder , Jesus' presentation in the temple , the holy family in the Nazareth house and the wedding Kana .
