Description:
After the destruction of the old church due to a double thunder stroke new basements were dug in 1764. In the following year one began to build a new late Rococo-style church under the aegis of the architects Johann Michael und Georg Schmitt of Koenigshofen. The stucco on the ceiling of the nave dates from the time of the construction of the church.
In 1774 the main altar and both sidealtars have been manufactured by the Oberelsbach born carpeter Hans Valentin Katzenberger and the sculptor Caspar Hippeli from Bad Neustadt. The new main altar is a wide structure that consumes the whole choir wall. It consists of six columns and four figures in between, namely St Martin, St Ambrose, St. Augustine and St. Nicolas from left to right. Above sit enthroned the trinity and angels.
In 1775 one erected both sidealtars. In 1786 Johann Peter Herrlein painted the new altar tableau with the martyrdom of the Frankonian apostles. Most probably he also painted the fresco on the ceiling "Glorification of the Holy Frankonian Apostles in Heaven" shortly before. The classicistic pulpit dates from the same time. Already in the 80ies the church had an organ.

Der Glockenturm, der in Form eines Dachreiters an der Westseite der Kirche aufgesetzt ist, ruht im Innern auf zwei quadratischen Pfeilern. Sehenswert sind im Inneren der Hochaltar mit seinen vier gewundenen Säulen (Traubenranken) und dem Wappen des Würzburger Fürstbischofs Peter Philipp von Dernbach (1675 - 1683) sowie des Klosters Bildhausen und der Herren von Rosenbach.

Description:
The Monastic Museum is available from the cloister. The silver tabernacle of Hans Peter Staffelbach and Hans Georg Ott is especially noteworthy within the rich collection of cultic paraphernalia and paraments of the 16th till 18th century.
Only a small part of the former treasure of the monastery is on display in the museum. During the time of the French occupation in 1798 and at the time of the cassation of the monastery by the canton in 1841 the major part of the monastic treasure was scattered to the four winds.
The cultural foundation of St. Martin succeeded in collecting the main exemplars of the monastic treasure and in making them available to the public by establishing the monastic museum.
