history
A parish was mentioned in a document in 1143. From 1338 to 1893 there was a refectory for the dean of Mattsee Abbey . In 1499 the late Gothic west tower was built with Wolfgang Wiesinger from Braunau am Inn. In 1714 a side aisle was added to the south and a side aisle was added to the north in 1799. After a fire (1917), the church was rebuilt and furnished from 1917 to 1920 according to the plans of the architect Karl Pirich, influenced by Art Nouveau. In 1925 the church was rededicated. 1950 and 1965 was an exterior restoration, 1957 an interior restoration. In 2015 the church was extensively renovated, with the remains of the wall from 10/11. Century were found.
Building
The church is surrounded by a walled cemetery. The essentially medieval church with a late Gothic west tower was extended with baroque side aisles and from 1917 after a fire with a central nave elevation through a flat wooden coffered ceiling ( Jakob Adlhart ) expanded into a basilica . The eastern apse with a 5/8 end forms the chancel. A memorial stone from 1625 for Vicar Thomas Passecker can be seen in the south wall of the nave.
