A panel painting from 1624 in St Mary and St Mark's Minster, Reichenau, Baden-Württemberg, Germany, depicts the founding legend of the island: the arrival of St Pirmin in 724. At its centre stands the walled monastery complex with the abbot's palace, demolished in the 19th century, and the parish church of St John. The 'Hohe Haus' sits by the harbour, the ruins of Schopflen and the church of St George in Oberzell appear on the left edge, and St Peter and Paul in Niederzell on the right.
