history
A castle chapel is first mentioned around 1315, dedicated to St. John the Baptist was consecrated.
In 1584 the Heilig-Geist-Spital was founded according to the will of Countess Kunigunde (formerly a building next to today's parish church - now the St. Kunigund community center in Weinsteigerstraße). In the years 1584 to 1588 the Hague Church was built as a hospital church in late Gothic style (steeple 1594), since its completion in 1607 there was a castle beneficiary with its own priest (Kaspar Preutl from Kirchdorf ).
In 1715 a benefit office for the hospital and hospital church was established. The parish of Kirchdorf with all its branches (Haag, Maitenbeth, Lengmoos, Ramsau) was placed under the St. Wolfgang monastery in 1738 .
As a result of the secularization, the castle and palace chapel were demolished around 1802. In 1808 the branch in Haag was separated from the mother parish in Kirchdorf : Haag became an independent parish with Aichach, Altdorf, Joppenpoint, Lerchenberg, Reith, Starnhülmühle, Sandgrub and Weyermühle. The Hague parish was founded on November 20, 1808. The first pastor was Vinzenz Stichauer, a Benedictine from Andechs . The former hospital church thus became a parish church. The cemetery was consecrated in 1813 and received its cemetery chapel in 1830.
During the great fire in Haag on July 14, 1849, the parish church burned down to the brickwork. In the course of the reconstruction by 1853, it was given a new eastern extension that towers above the nave. From 1953 to 1977 the chancel was redesigned for the renewed liturgy , a new celebration altar was built and the pulpit that was no longer needed was dismantled.
In 2000, the renovation work on and in the parish church began again with the re-erection of the two side altars. In 2003 the celebration of the 150th anniversary of the rededication of the parish church after the great fire took place, at the same time the partial completion of the renovation work in the front part of the church. All renovation work on the church was completed in 2007/2008. The Alfred Führer organ was inaugurated in 2015 .
description
This single-nave building was built as a hospital church at the end of the 16th century in the late Gothic style, but with its pillars it already bears Baroque features. When a big fire in 1849 also set fire to the church and destroyed the entire inventory, the Hague decided to extend their old church and furnished it again in the neo-Gothic style.
The nave is relatively narrow, the small chancel and the front part of the nave belong to the neo-Gothic part, the rear section of the nave still has the masonry of the original, late-Gothic church. This is followed by the completely neo-Gothic side chapels. A heavily drawn-in choir arch separates the front part of the church from the nave of the original church.
Furnishing
The high altar dates from 1879. In the large central niche there is the life-size figure of Our Lady with the blessing baby Jesus on her left arm; in the side niches the sculptures of St. Florian and St. Sebastian . Between these figures there is an angel . In the substructure of the altar, on both sides of the gilded tabernacle decorated with the motifs of bread and wine (ear and grape), relief images of the Lord's Supper and the entry into the promised land can be seen. In the middle of the north side altar is St. Anne with her daughter Maria kneeling at her feet , on the left the figure of St. Francis Xavier , on the right of St. Aloisius .
In front of it there is a small choir organ on the north wall . In the south side altar there are three figures of saints: in the middle: St. Joseph , on the left St. Leonhard , on the right Johannes Nepomuk , in between each an angel . The celebration altar is a massive "Gothic stone altar" made of hand-fired bricks, with a marble top. The Way of the Cross panels: wooden reliefs in bold shades on a gold-grained background depict Jesus' ordeal to Golgotha. In the vault of the nave hangs the large cross with the life-size figure of Jesus. In the southern side chapel there is the expressive figure of the scourged and thorn-crowned Savior ( Ecce homo ). The baptismal font in this chapel is more recent: biblical scenes (paradise, expulsion from paradise, vine, paschal lamb, baptism of Jesus) and texts of the baptismal liturgy are carved into the wall of the eight-sided basin made of light marble. On the wall of the north side chapel are the figures of the Mount of Olives who survived the fire in the grotto on the outside wall of the church. This chapel is redesigned several times during the church year. There are two neo-Gothic confessionals on the two walls of the nave.
Under the organ gallery , in a niche on the south wall of the ship, hangs the figure of Mary enthroned on clouds with the baby Jesus in her hands. On the north wall under the organ gallery there is a large stone plaque depicting Our Lady with outspread arms, including the names of those who died in the First and Second World Wars of the Hague parish with the inscription: “The fallen remind us to peace”, which was attached around 1960 has been.
Two saints can be seen on the pillars: St. Francis on the left, St. Anthony on the right . The large late Gothic church tower stands in the central axis of the church, the superstructure is baroque with a pointed helmet and is 52 meters high. The church tower clock with a double strike is a rarity.

The organ of the church was originally built in 1990 by the Alfred Führer company for the parish of St. Peter and Paul in Urbar near Koblenz. It is a three-manual instrument with slide chests and mechanical action . The first manual serves as a coupling manual . In 2015 the parish bought this instrument and moved it to Haag i. IF.
