Culture and sights
- Parish Church of St. Nicholas:
After a little church of St. Nicholas was mentioned as early as 1339 , the late Baroque parish church of St. Nicholas was built in 1760. In 1834 it received its characteristic onion dome. The architecture comes from Johann Umhauser, who was an employee of the spiritual building director Franz de Paula Penz. The painter and plasterer Josef Schmutzer the Younger , who also designed the churches in St. Jodok am Brenner , Mittenwald and Oberammergau, was responsible for decorating the church. The rococo style pulpit, like the structure of the altar and the statues, comes from the ideas of Johann Perger from Stilfes . The ceiling frescoes and the altarpiece of the main altar are made by Christoph Anton Mayr from Schwaz . The Stations of the Cross were designed by Josef Strasser in 1850. Thanks to its location on a moraine wall in the valley, with the Tribulaun mountain range in the background, and its architectural style, the church is one of the most sought-after photo opportunities in Tyrol.

coat of arms
The municipal coat of arms awarded in 1973 by the Tyrolean provincial government shows two gold cones and a king with a crown in a three-passport in red . The three golden cones refer to the legend of the golden bowling game , which is said to be buried in the Rasselstein and is guarded by the mountain king. The real core of the legend is probably the natural resources of the Tribulaun.
