history
A previous building was destroyed by the eruption of the Rofener Eisseee on July 16, 1678 and rebuilt in 1679. As the church had become too small due to the increased population, the nave was demolished in 1805/06 except for the presbytery and replaced by a new building, which was consecrated in 1831. Another flood of the Ötztaler Ache destroyed the church tower in 1868 and rebuilt it in 1870. In 1891 Huben was made a parish.
architecture
The church stands in the valley floor on the northern edge of Huben and is surrounded by a cemetery. The tower with arched sound windows has a short pointed gable helmet. The sacristy is attached to the south. The west facade has a round arched portal, a window opening and flanking niches. On the gable there is a fresco with the donation of St. Martin from the first half of the 19th century.
The three-bay nave under a lancet barrel vault with a round-arched triumphal arch closes with a polygonal apse. The vault paintings with scenic representations of St. Martin and Kassian, Christi and the Evangelists are from Johann Wanner (1816).
Furnishing
The rebuilt altar from 1930 has late baroque parts and shows the altar painting Mantle donation of St. Martin von Theres Strigl (1891) and in the upper picture the lamentation with a coat of arms and the donor's inscription Johann Khuen 1694 and carries the statues Kassian and Johann Nepomuk by the sculptor Josef Schatz (1819). Two figures of bishops from the end of the 17th century were attributed to the sculptor Klemens Sattler.
