history

The Ulrichsberg parish church was probably built as a Gothic building in the second half of the 14th century. After it was destroyed by the Hussites in 1424, the church was rebuilt around 1500; after a major fire in 1719, it was presumably converted to Baroque style. When the church was rebuilt before 1825, the Gothic tower and the outer walls of the previous building were preserved and a baroque, three-aisled, two-bay staggered hall was built. The two side aisles were added at the beginning of the 19th century, and the striking tower spire dates from 1892.

Some baroque figures were made by the sculptor Johann Worath . In the course of the redesign in accordance with the Second Vatican Council , the popular altar was created by Peter Dimmel in 1979 , the glass windows by Rudolf Kolbitsch . In 2012 the rows of benches were renovated and rearranged.
