history
The church was first mentioned in 1179 as a branch church of the Steinerkirchen parish . The late Gothic hall church was built between 1448 and 1450, the choir followed in 1492 and the south portal in 1494. The final church consecration took place in 1520.
Church building
Exterior of the church
The church consists of ashlar masonry and has a baroque western tower. The church tower, built in 1535, has a baroque onion helmet . A star-rib vaulted vestibule is built in front of the barbed south portal from 1494. The west portal as well as the gate to the gallery and the sacristy are barred.
Church interior
The church has a two-nave, three-bay nave that is exceptionally high. It is arched with net ribs and star ribs . The vault is comparable to that of the Vöcklabruck parish church . The two central pillars are partly fluted and partly roughened. The retracted choir is almost the same height as the nave. The three-bay choir with a 3/8 end appears very spacious. The net rib vault rests on octagonal services . The choir is decorated with late Gothic vault painting, which depicts the “head of Christ” and the symbols of the evangelists. The original paintings have been completely falsified by restorations. The west gallery has four axes and is broken twice. The gallery rests on a keel arch with roughened columns and ribbed vaults.
Furnishing
The decor is neo-Gothic . The statues of Saints Valentin and Erhard and the crucifix on the west gallery come from the former high altar, which was erected in 1643. The Johannes Nepomuk column on the central column in the nave dates from the second quarter of the 18th century. The fourteen stations of the cross are early Baroque and were originally hung in the Kremsmünster collegiate church . The strongly Mannerist pictures date from the 17th century. In the vestibule is a figural group of crosses from 1705.
