St. Pankratius
St. Pankratius is the Roman Catholic filial church of Oberrohr, a village in the Ursberg community in the Bavarian district of Günzburg. The building went up in the early seventeenth century as a hall church, and it stands protected as a listed monument. From outside you read the plan at a glance: a nave leads east to a chancel closed on three of its sides. A flank tower rises against the south wall of that chancel.
The lower floors of the tower went up around 1660. In 1737 builders added a storey with pilasters at all eight corners to house the bell chamber. Inside, flat ceilings stretch across both the nave and the chancel.
The high altar, built around 1620, is attributed to Christoph Rodt, and its altarpiece carries a depiction of Mary. On the north wall of the nave hangs a copy of a miraculous image from the Prince-Bishop's Lyceum in Freising.
