“A cemetery church?” you might ask, your eyebrows shooting up in surprise. You’re right here, standing before St. Stephan’s Church in Munich. It doesn’t look like your typical house of worship, does it? That’s because St. Stephan’s holds a unique position in the city’s history. It served as the cemetery church for the old South Cemetery.
