Heilig-Geist-Spitalkirche was built in the Gothic style in the middle of the 15th century. In 1733 a fire destroyed the church. From 1748 to 1749, Franz Karl Fischer rebuilt the church in the style of the monastery church of the Franciscans of Dillingen. From the hospital next door you can directly access a balcony above the sanctuary of the church.

The exterior facade was painted by Joseph Joseph Walch in 1749 with colorful Rockoko-style frescoes. In the upper part, the Trinity (God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit) can be seen. The lower part shows the saints Florian (left) and Christophorus (right).
