St. Andreas (Teisendorf)
St. Andreas in Teisendorf is the baroque parish church of the Catholic parish of the same name . It was rebuilt in 1684 on an older core after a fire in the market. The church was renovated and expanded several times, among other things due to another fire. At 64 meters, the main tower is one of the highest in the Berchtesgadener Land .
history
On November 3, 1437, the Bishop of Chiemsee consecrated the new Gothic parish church. In 1682 the Teisendorf market, including the church, burned down. Then, in 1684, today's church was built on the existing core, with two side aisles added to the old one. It has a retracted polygonal choir and an attached two-storey sacristy. In 1737 the church tower was rebuilt after the collapse. When the market in Teisendorf burned again in 1815, the church was again affected.
Bells
The chime consists of three bells from 1949 ( cast by Karl Czudnochowsky in Erding ) and one from 1815 (which is the only one left from a four-bell ring from that time). Separately, there is still a death bell from 1780 today.
tower
The tower used to have a triple onion dome as a crown and thus bore an even more distinct Salzburg character, as the open sound arcades and the clock cornices reveal. This indicates that it belonged to the Archdiocese of Salzburg . It was not erected in its current form until 1737 after the main tower collapsed, which means that its final height of 64 meters was reached.
Media reception
The church, which characterizes the townscape of the Teisendorf market, is the central motif of the first shot of the opening credits of the well-known television series Royal Bavarian District Court . In the following section to the church tower in detail, however, there is a switch to the Laufen collegiate church .
Parish
In 1617 the Teisendorf dean's office in Salzburg was founded. 200 years later, on November 5, 1817, the deanery resigned from the Archdiocese of Salzburg and was finally assigned to the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising in a papal bull of December 8, 1822 .
