history
In a document a church was named in 1200, a presumption assumes a branch of the Schottenkloster . In 1227 the pastor Berthold was mentioned in a document. The church consists of several architectural historical periods, the Romanesque choir square tower has been partially preserved, a Gothic chapel extension has been preserved. The baroque nave from 1714/1715 was a church extension to the west under the patronage holder Bartholomäus I von Tinti . Around 1900 the tower received an onion helmet with a lantern and a confessional chapel on the south side. In 1995 the church was restored inside and in 1998 outside.
architecture
The baroque nave shows arched windows and a strong, grooved eaves with a three-axis, two-storey west facade with layered pilasters with an attachment with a central triangular gable and curved side outlets over a strong cornice. In the center of the western front there is a round arched window flanked by niches with the statues Antonius with child and Johannes Nepomuk, in the niche in the middle of the top there is the statue of Thomas. The rectangular portal in the middle of the western front shows the building inscription 1715 Bartholomäus Tinti, above the portal is a three-dimensional Tinti heraldic cartouche flanked by two angels over a cornice. The Romanesque choir square is the end of the choir and shows on the north wall of the tower above Romanesque large ashlar masonry and an incised drawing of a Romanesque cube capital from the end of the 12th century. In the upper zone, the tower has a flat corner cuboid and floor bands, sound windows, and wears an onion helmet with a lantern around 1900. Between the choir square and the nave is a two-bay choir. On the north side of the choir square is the old sacristy, partly with a Gothic eaves. On the south side of the choir square there is an aisle-like extension of a Gothic chapel extension with a triangle closure and two southern buttresses and partly bricked-up pointed arched windows with Gothic garments from the mid-14th century. This Gothic chapel was later extended to the baroque nave with the two-bay choir and shows arched windows there and an oratory on the upper floor. To the south of the nave are two spiral stair towers, the eastern spiral stair tower is late Gothic with pointed arches, the western one is baroque. A low confessional chapel from 1900 is built between the spiral staircase towers. On the east side of the choir square, the new single-storey sacristy was added in 1746 and shows some barred arched windows and east lunette windows. On the north wall of the nave there is a tombstone of Johann Christoph Ernbl and his wife Eva with 1746/1749.
The interior of the church is shown in the three-bay nave with rounded corners with lancet barrels on stepped pilasters and belt arches. The three-axis stab cap vaulted west gallery stands on two Tuscan columns. The triumphal arch is rounded. The lower, heavily indented choir is Romanesque in the masonry and has two-bay baroque lancet barrels. The subsequent slightly recessed Romanesque tower choir square has a barrel vault. The northern old sacristy has a ribbed vault around 1400 on capped inlets with a round keystone. The southern Gothic one-bay chapel with a triangular closure has a ribbed vault with keystones from the 14th century with partly removed ribs. There is an ogival sacraments niche in the chapel. The chapel has partly exposed medieval painting depicting a consecration cross. The Gothic chapel has been expanded in the baroque style to the west and opens to the choir with arched arcades and ends with a low flat ceiling with a plaster cut mirror. The eastern new sacristy has a flat ceiling with a curved stucco mirror over a profiled cornice and has baroque iron plate doors with original locks and fittings. The tower staircase has a stone spiral staircase below and a wooden one above. The roof structure is baroque or Biedermeier and was reinforced in the 20th century. Romanesque masonry is visible in the attic. In the southeast of the choir is a medieval eaves stone. On the belt arches of the vault (probably in the nave) there is baroque decorative painting, above the triumphal arch a painted heraldic cartouche. In the choir (probably on the vault) there are baroque profiled stucco medallions.
Furnishing
The facility was mostly built in the first half of the 18th century. The high altar from the first quarter of the 18th century occupies the east end, has a flat altar structure with double columns and sacrificial aisle portals and shows the high altar image of unbeliever Thomas and bears the statues Sebastian, Rochus, Alban, König and in the elevator Trinity and a relief sacrifice on the tabernacle Isaac . The side altars in the rounded corners of the eastern nave corners are marbled retable altars with oval pictures by Balthasar Scabino de Rossa (Rosaforte), the birth of Christ on the left and Mary Magdalene in the excerpt, the martyrdom of Bartholomew on the right and Peter in the excerpt. There is an image of Mariahilf. The baroque pulpit shows the bas-relief of the church fathers and Paul on the back wall, the sound cover bears angels with the symbols of faith, hope, love.
In the southern chapel choir there is a remarkable five-figure crucifixion group with Christ, Mary, John and the two thieves around 1700 over a base built alla grottesca, the altar strip shows a painted body of Christ.
The organ from 1726 was transferred here from the parish and pilgrimage church Mariabrunn in Vienna XIV in 1827 . Johann Kippo names a bell in 1690.
