St. Martin (Loinbruck)
The St. Martin branch church is the Roman Catholic village church of Loinbruck , a district of the Schwindegg community in Upper Bavaria . It is part of the parish of St. Jakobus the Elder - Buchbach.
history
The church was originally built as a Romanesque building. The church was changed in the 15th and 17th centuries.
During the Thirty Years War , the church is said to have been attacked by Swedes who tried to steal the valuables that were in it. The sacristan at the time had previously hidden or buried them and did not reveal where they were, which is why he was killed. To this day people in the area say that among other things a valuable monstrance was lost.
