The Hoffkirche or Court Church of Maximilan I was built to house the tomb of Maximilian I and was completed in 1587. The tomb lies in the center of the church and remains empty because Maximilian was buried in Wiener Neustadt, Austria. The larger than life size figures of family members and forefathers are considered masterpieces of Renaissance sculpture. Look for the figure of Joanna the mad, Maximilian's daughter in law.
