Hotel Asam is a historically significant building in Straubing, Bavaria. Originally constructed in the early 16th century as a patrician residence, it underwent substantial Baroque remodeling in the 17th century under the Asam brothers – Cosmas Damian Asam and Egid Quirin Asam – renowned Bavarian artists of the late Baroque period. The hotel is particularly noted for its richly decorated chapel, a prime example of Asam Brothers' artistic style featuring stucco work, frescoes and illusionistic painting. Today it functions as a hotel and event venue, maintaining its historical character while hosting cultural events.
