location

The church is located in the Munich district of Isarvorstadt south of Kapuzinerstraße across from the Old Southern Cemetery . It is oriented roughly in a north-south direction.

history

The inhabitants of the originally sparsely populated Glockenbachviertel were looked after by the Capuchins of the St. Anton Monastery, founded in 1846 . However, with increasing population growth and the emergence of the slaughterhouse district , the painful chapel that served as the monastery church became too small. Therefore, a new, larger church was built for the surrounding districts west of the monastery and dedicated to St. Anthony of Padua from 1893–95 based on plans by Ludwig Marckert . The church is dedicated to St. Lawrence of Brindisi as co-patron. This was the order general who had introduced the Capuchins into Munich.

architecture

St. Anton - interior

St. Anton is a neo-Romanesque basilica with a semicircular closed choir . The bright stone of the edges, arched friezes and soffits create an attractive contrast to the reddish brick of the wall surfaces . Instead of a tower, the ridge at the transition from the nave to the choir has a roof turret . The wall surfaces are richly structured. The portal gable, in front of which there is a three-arched entrance hall with two-storey side buildings, is particularly elaborate.
