Impressive, the interior of the church was designed in neo-rococo style, definitely worth seeing.
St. Andreas is the Catholic parish church of Nesselwang. The first documented church building in Nesselwang was carried out in the early 15th century. A new building replaced the old St. Andreas Church in the years 1683 to 1685. After this baroque church was also found to be too small and dilapidated, the foundation stone for the next St. Andreas Church in Nesselwang was laid on October 9, 1904.

The history of the church dates back to the 8th century. According to tradition, Saint Magnus is said to have established a prayer cell here. Several predecessor buildings already stood on the site of the present church. The present parish church was built between 1906 and 1908 according to the plans of the architect Ferdinand Schildhauer in the Neo-Baroque style with a richly decorated interior in the Neo-Rococo style. The striking church tower dates back to 1748 and is therefore significantly older than the current church building.
