history
Baumkirchen was mentioned for the first time around 1147 in a disposition in favor of the St. Peter monastery in Salzburg as "Poumchirche". A mention in a deed of donation from 1040 as Pawinuchircha is said to refer to a Baumkirchen which today belongs to Munich . In 1312 Baumkirchen is listed as a separate municipality in the Inntaler tax book . As Franz Fliri, a geography professor who lives in Baumkirchen at the University of Innsbruck, writes in his book about Baumkirchen, the Laurentius church patronage, the field names with their partly Romanesque origins and the division of the hallway indicate that the Baumkirchen settlement is older than the first documented one Mention.
The Baumkirchen parish church was verifiably consecrated for the first time in 1310 by Bishop Johann von Brixen , but according to Fliri, the Laurentius patronage indicates a higher age. In 1490 Paul Heuberger built the Wohlgemutsheim Palace in Baumkirchen . The castle changed hands several times and from 1623 to 1783 it belonged to the Haller Damenstift . Don Bosco sisters have been housed in the castle since 1959 . The palace chapel of the Holy Trinity is said to have been built around 1517 by Paul von Kripp with the patronage of the 14 helpers in need. 1650 was the Kreuzbühel from the Haller common citizen Thomas Gapp with other benefactors, the Anna Chapel built. The construction took place in the style of the buildings by Hippolyt Guarinoni and was endowed by Johann Karl von Fieger with endowment funds. The chapel gained special importance through the St. Anna Brotherhood, which was founded in 1710 and which at the time of its foundation comprised almost half the population of Baumkirchen. Also around the middle of the 17th century, in the area of a healing spring that Hippolyt Guarinoni is said to have discovered, a bath house with a spa was built, which was maintained until the time before the Second World War . After 1939 the bath house was only used for apartments and was demolished in 1984. The springs below the Anna chapel were destroyed by road construction in 1950.
