history
The presumably older parish is mentioned in a document in 1261 and was incorporated into the Lambach Monastery from 1692 to 1781 . The mighty late baroque church building with west tower was rebuilt in 1662 and badly damaged in the course of the second Turkish siege of Vienna in 1683. Reconstruction began in 1693. The tower was built in 1778 and the church was consecrated in 1785.
architecture
The nave with buttresses was built around 1700 and the east is a plan in the form of a Greek cross with a semicircular apse. On the gable facade is the richly structured three-storey church tower with pilasters on the upper floor, segmented gables and an onion helmet. The west portal in the tower hall bears the year 1766. The Franz Xaver Chapel was added to the south of the nave in 1694, and a mausoleum of the Rothermann family with terracotta decorations was added to the north in the second half of the 19th century. The two-bay nave under a barrel vault has a gallery above a groin vault. In the middle of the nave are transept-like extensions under a vaulted square. The square vaulted choir with a round apse has a sacristy on the left and a confessional chapel on the right.
Furnishing
The high altar has a late baroque free-standing tabernacle , which is shaped like a round temple with a dome. On the apse wall under a rich canopy is a miraculous image of the Black Madonna after a Byzantine icon, inscribed with the year 1460, where it is assumed that the miraculous image is by the painter Unger from Wiener Neustadt . The miraculous image was transferred here from Forchtenstein by Prince Paul Esterházy in 1694 . The original acanthus frame of the miraculous image was replaced by a silver frame, which was donated in 1736.
The side altars have modern figures. The left side altar bears an oil painting St. Anna teaches Maria to read by Stephan Dorfmeister from 1784. The oil paintings in the nave, St. Johannes Nepomuk on the death bed , St. Franz Xavier , Holy Family, are attributed to Dorfmeister.
There is a baroque stone dining grill . Noteworthy is a silver eternal light traffic light. The organ is from 1856.
