Christgarten is a district of the municipality of Ederheim in the Donau-Ries district and was the smallest independent municipality in Bavaria until 1978. Its current special feature is the Carthusian church of St. Peter, whose preserved choir from the 14th century serves as a Protestant parish church. Next to the church, there are still remains of the chapter house and the lay brothers' house of the Carthusian monastery founded in 1383. The valuable Scheuffelin altar by Hans Schäufelin from around 1400 is now in the Alte Pinakothek in Munich.

Kloster Christgarten: The settlement of Christgarten has existed since Merovingian times. In the Middle Ages, it included a St. Peter's Chapel, last mentioned in 1692. Nearby, the Counts of Oettingen founded a monastery in 1383, which they handed over to the Carthusian Order. The monastery church was built around 1390. The monastery, which soon became very wealthy, was severely destroyed during the Thirty Years' War and dissolved in 1648. Today, only the monks' choir of the church remains, while the part for laypeople has been almost completely demolished. Little has survived of the monastery itself, apart from a hall-like room south of the choir, whose outer walls are still standing.
