history

A double parish was named Mils and Baumkirchen in documents around 1215. The late Gothic church building called the master Narcissus Pecherer. In 1602 Mils received its own parish. In the village fire in 1791, the church with the tower burned down. The construction of the church began in 1792 and was consecrated in 1804. The much-visited place of pilgrimage went under with the village fire and was replaced by the Absamer pilgrimage in 1797. A renovation took place in 1908. The exterior was restored in 1964. In 1970 a two-storey west gallery was installed. The interior was restored in 1976/1977.

architecture

The simple late baroque village church - already designed in a classical style inside - is surrounded by a cemetery. The nave stands under a gable roof, which hips when the semicircular closing choir is drawn in. The south tower on the nave has arched sound windows and an onion hood with a lantern. The sacristy is built into the choir corner by the tower. A coffin cornice and triangular pilaster strips from the Gothic building have been preserved on the north wall of the nave. The west portal is a chamfered round arch portal and has a vestibule on two pillars under a half-hip roof. Above the portal, the western front shows a mosaic Madonna designed by Rudolf Margreiter and executed by the mosaic workshop Josef Pfefferle (1908).

The hall of the nave has four bays, the retracted semicircular closing choir is two bays, both under a flat barrel with a strong surrounding cornice with leaf consoles and a toothed frieze, cranked over flat pilasters with Corinthian capitals, the structure being continued in belt arches. The yoke walls are opened with large windows, the profiled stucco frame is supported by short pilasters. The triumphal arch is basket-shaped.

The ceiling frescoes were painted by Rudolf Margreiter, in 1907 in the choir Nativity and Crucifixion between the four evangelists, in 1908 in the nave the Annunciation and Assumption of Mary, the spandrel pictures show symbols of the Lauretan litany.

Facility

The three magnificent altars were probably created under the influence of southern German court artists in Innsbruck around 1667 and were transferred here from the Regelhauskirche in Innsbruck. Aloys Wagner painted the high altar sheet of the Holy Trinity with the Saints Christopher, Johann Nepomuk, Primin, Rochus, Florian, Sebastian above the legend of the discovery of the Mils miraculous image in 1757. The right side altar shows the altar sheet Glorification of Mary by Johann Anwander 1770, also from the Regelhauskirche in Innsbruck transfer. The left side altar bears a Madonna of Mercy around 1420, which was heavily modified in the 19th century.

In the choir on the right, a canvas picture shows a Pietá based on the image of grace in the Karlskirche in Volders.

Simon Peter Miller names a bell in 1795.
