history
The early Romanesque building from the 11th century probably existed as a small castle church. Documented around 1250 a feudal parish Zwieselkirchen of Rüdiger von Anschau. After the Reformation there was again a Catholic patronage from the Salburg family / Salaberg Castle and successors from 1626 to 1982 .
Before 1521, a foundation by Stefan Perger was set up for the late Gothic rebuilding of the church. In 1984 there was a restoration.
architecture
The late Gothic hall church as a three-pillar room is followed by a late Gothic retracted higher two-bay east choir with a three-sided connection. The essentially late Gothic west tower stands on the Romanesque west wall of the nave and on the two gallery pillars and is thus indented. A small Romanesque west choir of the previous building is presented in the tower alignment on the western front. There is a crypt under the west choir. In the southern corner of the choir there is a late Gothic sacristy extension under a pent roof.
Furnishing
In 1889/1892 a regotization took place based on designs by Hermann von Riewel , the carpentry work was done by Josef Andergassen , the statues by Anton Dichtl, the reliefs by Josef Bachlechner .
The font from around 1520/1530 with a lid from 1965 is in the west apse.
Johann Lachmayr built the organ in a neo-Gothic case in 1903.
