history
Parish history
Until 1786 Goggendorf belonged to the parish of Sitzendorf an der Schmida , which was under the patronage of the Baumburg monastery . In 1784 the community asked Emperor Joseph II. Goggendorf to be raised to parish. Baumburg was then commissioned to expand the chapel and the rectory and to provide Goggendorf with his own clergyman. Baumburg Abbey did not fulfill this mandate and thus delayed the establishment of the parish. On January 31, 1786, the archbishop's consistory gave the order to consecrate the church under the title of the Annunciation . It was made a condition of eliminating the existing deficiencies and carrying out various modifications and extensions. In 1787 the first pastor of Goggendorf started his service.
With the entry into force of the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss in 1803, the patronage of the Baumburg monastery ended and the parish became princely .
Building history
In 1365 a church in Goggendorf was first mentioned in a document. Details about it have not survived, it could have been a Romanesque chapel with a Gothic extension. Around 1690, the population made the decision to replace this church with a new building. The existence of a simple, south-facing baroque church with a Gothic wall core has been handed down from 1699.
On the basis of an application from 1739, the consistory approved the construction of a bell house in the following year , but the tower was not erected until 1754. In a letter from 1773 a house of prayer and a bell belonging to it is mentioned.
The construction of the current nave took place in 1791 and led to a reorientation of the church. Since then, the high altar has been in the north, the tower ground floor, which had provided access to the church, was converted into a sacristy and the building was completed by a roof with a continuous ridge.
Building description
Outside
The facade of the multi-part church is structured by uniform, simple plaster strips and arched windows. A ridge-like saddle roof over a profiled eaves cornice closes off the nave and the choir. In the south, a simple classical gable facade with a portal, a round arched window and an oculus in the gable forms the end of the nave.
The 23 meter high tower adjoining the Chorjoch forms the northern end of the church. On the east side of the tower there is a baroque stone robe portal with a curved, profiled cornice above the inscription "17 IHS 54" . It forms the entrance to the tower ground floor with groin vault, which was previously used as a sacristy.
On the north facade of the tower is a round arch niche with a statuette of St. Florian , which is marked on the base with “Sepastian Much Eva Muchin 1741” .
Inside
The nave has drawn-in corners and is closed by a grooved flat ceiling from the end of the 18th century. The southern gallery rests on Tuscan columns . The transition from the nave to the choir is formed by a slightly drawn-in basket-arched triumphal arch .
The choir yoke and the chapel annex in the west have square vaults on corner pilasters from the mid-18th century. A wall painting in the choir bay from the second half of the 18th century, which was uncovered in 1984, shows the motifs " Annunciation " , " Holy Trinity " and St. Florian .
Furnishing
The tabernacle of the neo-baroque high altar with acanthus ornament and segment-arched gable from 1843 is flanked by figures of angels. Above it is the neo-Gothic altar sheet with the depiction of the “Annunciation”, which is labeled “Anton Novak 1893”.
On the right side of the triumphal arch is a niche retable altar with the figure of a rosary Madonna from the 19th century. In the chapel there is a classical niche retable with a neo-Gothic figure of Christ from the end of the 19th century.
The baroque holy water container on a console with an inscription cartouche dates from the beginning of the 18th century.
organ
The organ was completely restored in 1877. After it had become damaged again, however, in 1899 Johann Marcell Kaufmann, the grandfather of Johann M. Kauffmann from Vienna , was given the order to make a new instrument.
During the First World War , the 21 pewter prospect pipes were removed and delivered to the War Ministry on February 22, 1918 . The playability of the organ has not suffered significantly as a result. Later the ceded pipes were replaced. The work has eight registers, which are distributed over a manual and pedal. The prospectus is structured by three round arch fields, each with seven pipes. The middle pipe field is slightly raised. In accordance with the romantic tradition of the time of construction, fundamental voices predominate.

Bells
During a fire in May of 1816, the church bells also melted. When and with how many bells they were replaced is not known, however, it is known that a defective bell was replaced in 1890 and inaugurated on August 15, 1890 (Assumption of Mary). During the First World War, in addition to the 21 organ pipes, the bronze bells were also delivered to the War Ministry.
In 1922, the Böhler company in Kapfenberg manufactured two new cast steel bells for the church in Goggendorf, which were inaugurated on Easter Monday in 1923.
