St. Georg (Großweil, new)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
St. Georg in Großweil

The Roman Catholic branch church St. Georg in Großweil in the Upper Bavarian district of Garmisch-Partenkirchen belongs as part of the parish of St. Tertulin Schlehdorf in the Heimgarten-Schlehdorf-Ohlstadt-Großweil parish to the Werdenfels dean's office of the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising . The church has the address Kleinweiler Straße 4 .

history

Due to the large increase in population in Großweil after the Second World War , the old St. George's Church became too small and a new building was necessary. In 1957, a plot of land measuring around 2000  square meters was acquired and in April 1960 the foundation stone was laid for the building according to plans by the Murnau architect Fritz Hierl. The roof was completed in the same year and on October 22, 1961 the church was consecrated by Auxiliary Bishop Johannes Neuhäusler .

Like the old Großweiler church, the new one received St. George as the church patron .
