history

A church was first mentioned in a document in 1430. The Gothic church building was extended with three aisles from 1687 to 1694 with Gaspare Zuccalli, and in 1787 the church was rebuilt onto a nave. The Gothic tower, which is essentially Romanesque, was given a helmet in 1763 based on a design by Wolfgang Hagenauer . In 1858 it was elevated to parish church. The church was restored outside in 1971 and inside in 1974. During the excavation in 1974, a bath of a Roman estate from the first and second centuries was uncovered and above it remains of the first church from the ninth and tenth centuries. This was followed by a new Romanesque building; today's choir and tower have been preserved in the core.
