The parish Reingers stands in the middle of the village in the municipality Reingers in the district of Gmünd in Lower Austria .

history
Reingers received a stone chapel in 1755, which was given a permit in 1761 and granted a measurement license. In 1765 mass was held in the chapel four times a year. Because of the relatively large distance from the Litschauer parish church, many local residents attended Sunday mass in nearby Nová Bystřice. As a result of the later Josephine reforms, Reingers was elevated to a parish in 1784, the chapel was demolished in 1755 and a new, larger church was built.
The parish was founded in 1784 and thus the Josephinische Saalkirche with a facade tower was built from 1784 to 1807. The church was renovated in 1882 and 1912.
architecture
The three-axis nave with a retracted five-sided choir with a pilaster structure has flat arched windows and a rectangular portal. The sacristy is built on the east side of the choir. The square north tower with a bell helmet is inserted into the gable facade.
The wide hall and the choir have flat ceilings over a cornice on pilasters doubled in the middle of the hall. The organ gallery with a marbled parapet stands on pressed pillar arcades. The glass painting Barbara, Notburga, Agnes, Johannes Nepomuk, Florian, Leonhard from 1912 was created by Ostermann and Hartwein in Munich. The ceiling painting Transfiguration Christi was painted by the painter Friedrich Krämer (1951).
Furnishing
The post-baroque marbled high altar from the 19th century was transferred here from the repealed Paulan monastery church in Klášter . The altarpiece shows the coronation of Mary. The right, post-baroque side altar from the 19th century is a former Johannes Nepomuk altar. The pulpit with basket reliefs Paradise, the Fall of Man and Expulsion from Paradise and with the figure of God the Father on the sound cover was made around 1800. The baptismal font made of marbled wood was made around 1800. The Stations of the Cross are from the 1st half of the 19th century.
The organ was built by Johann M. Kauffmann in 1939.
