architecture
The church is a hall building oriented in north-south direction with a slightly drawn-in round apse, a south-east tower and a specially roofed three-axis vestibule with polychrome sgraffito decor. Above the entrance arcades there is a representation of the four symbols of the evangelists and on the side walls representations of the Madonna in the protective cloak and the feast of Pentecost . The sgraffito decor was created by Josef Zöchling (1951). The flat-roofed hall is lit through a ribbon of windows in the apse and on the south wall. The interior of the church is divided into the transverse main room and the vestibule by a glass door and the construction of the organ gallery.
Furnishing
The equipment comes largely from the construction period. The glass painting comes from Josef Widmoser (Old Testament figures) and Clarisse Praun (4 elements). The wall paintings from 1955, which depict the Annunciation of the Lord , the Adoration of the Magi , the Crucifixion of Christ and the Resurrection of Jesus Christ , are by Max Poosch-Gablenz . The hanging crucifix is the work of Alexey Krassowsky , the enamel pictures on the tabernacle were created by Maria Schwamberger-Riemer .
