It is consecrated to St. John Nepomuk and belongs to the Wolkersdorf deanery in the vicariate Unter dem Manhartsberg of the Archdiocese of Vienna . The building is a listed building .
history
Bogenneusiedl has been a branch of the parish St. Nikolaus in Wolfpassing since 1560. In 1765, under the village judge Johann Neuburg, the community built a chapel in the basement of the tower, according to a partially preserved inscription. This initially had no altar and was not suitable for holding a Holy Mass , so that the faithful had to attend the service in Wolfpassing. Since a sacristy was not added until 1845, it can be assumed that an altar should already have been available by this time at the latest. Nevertheless, Holy Mass has only been celebrated in Bogenneusiedl every Sunday since around 1935.
In 1934 the church was renovated for the first time, replacing the simple stained glass windows with stained glass windows donated by the local residents. Despite a renewed renovation from 1976 to 1978, the rise of damp could not be prevented, so that on the occasion of a renewed renovation in 1996 the masonry of the church was cut through and re-colored inside and out.
