history

Around 1250 a vicariate was named. In 1789 the church was separated from the Niederhollabrunn parish and elevated to the status of a parish church. The core of the Romanesque building has a choir and a south chapel from the second quarter of the 14th century. The north aisle made of quarry stone is from the 15th century. The south aisle, which will probably later be built, is made of brickwork. The church was baroque in 1689.

architecture

Church exterior

The staggered three-aisled nave with buttresses under a gable roof is drawn down lower to the south. The western gable facade has local stones in the northern corner in the middle of the nave width Romanesque ashlar masonry. In front of the west portal is a baroque vestibule from 1726. The portals of the side aisles and the arched windows and the onion helmet are baroque.

The polygonal closed choir has buttresses with pent roofs and at the end three two-lane tracery windows. In the extension of the south aisle south of the choir there is a Gothic one-bay chapel with a five-eighth end with two tracery windows in the south-east end of the choir. A sacristy is built to the north of the choir.

Church interior

In the church the vestibule is vaulted with a groin. The three-aisled, three-bay central nave under a needle cap barrel has arched arcades on the aisles on Romanesque pillars in the core, which were encased in 1686 with pilasters on high plinths. The organ loft is vaulted under the groin with a swinging parapet on two Tuscan columns. The side aisles have groin vaults on pilasters and cornices. The two-bay choir with a five-eighth end has a ribbed vault in the western yoke between reinforcing belts for the tower located there, with the western belt forming the triumphal arch to the nave. The second yoke and the end of the choir is raised under a ribbed vault with relief keystones, rosette and dove on round services with simple chalice capitals and shaft rings. In the right wall of the choir is a biformed session with a round bar frame. In the left choir wall is a pointed arch portal to the two-bay, groin-vaulted sacristy. The south chapel has a single bay with a five-eighth end and is connected to the south aisle with a retracted triumphal arch. The yoke has a six-part ribbed vault with grooved ribs with relief keystones on simple consoles. The two-part session of the Südkapelle has registered three passes.

The glass windows in the nave and choir were made around 1900. The glass windows in the south chapel were made around 1960–1970.

Furnishing

The high altar on a Gothic stone canteen - clad with a marble slab - is a neo-Gothic carved altar and bears the figures Helena and Hippolit in niches and the Trinity between Rosalia and Leonhard. The side altar in the north aisle bears a baroque carved figure of Josef from the beginning of the 18th century. In the south chapel, instead of an altar, there is the group of figures Christ on the cross with Mary and John made of wood around 1700. On the triumphal arch are the baroque console figures Leopold and Florian. The baroque figure of Antonius stands under the organ gallery and was originally the counterpart to Joseph. The Stations of the Cross are neo-Gothic. The holy water font is from 1751.

The organ is from the end of the 19th century. There is a bell around 1800.
