St. Laurentius (Tittmoning)
St. Laurentius is a parish church of the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising in the city of Tittmoning in Bavaria .
history
The church was mentioned in a document in 1189 when Nonnberg Abbey in Salzburg was granted patronage over the church and its five side churches. According to the building inscription, the new building was started in 1410 by the builder Hans Weylhaimer. The nave was vaulted in 1514. Construction of the tower began in 1534. In 1633 a collegiate foundation was founded by the Archbishop of Salzburg Paris von Lodron . German Bartholomites later settled the monastery. In 1672 the tower extension was started with Giovanni Antonio Dario from Salzburg. From 1697 to 1698 the Kreuzkapelle was built with Johann Pattinger. Until 1810 the church belonged to the Archdiocese of Salzburg . From 1815 to 1820, after a fire, the interior of the church and the tower top were rebuilt with Lorenz Brändl. The interior of the church was redesigned around 1817 in a baroque style. A renovation took place from 1971 to 1974. In 1994 the room version from 1817 was reconstructed.
architecture
_Chor.jpg)
The late-Gothic wall-pillar church made of tuff ashlars stands northwest of the town square on an elevated section of land on the site of a previous church from the 10th and 11th centuries. A retracted three-bay choir with a three-sided connection is attached to the spacious three-bay hall. The choir has double buttresses on the outside. From 1439 to 1466 , high net-vaulted side chapels were built into the nave between the pillars, analogous to the parish church of St. Stephan in Braunau am Inn in Upper Austria. The pent roofs of the side chapels reach just below the mighty nave roof. The mighty tower, square below with buttresses placed across the corner and a round arch frieze, stands in the west in the church axis. The tower ground floor and the first octagonal tower floor are Gothic. The further construction of the tower with sound windows took place in 1671. The bell chamber with lantern and dome was added in 1820. Sacristies were added to the choir on both sides. The southern sacristy is older and has a stair tower. The cross chapel was added to the north of the nave. As is typical of the region, the nave has no windows in the north. The crypt under the choir, which is covered with a massive ribbed vault and was used as a crypt for the canons, is remarkable for the late Gothic church. There are numerous tombstones and wooden sculptures on the outside walls of the church, mostly from the 17th and 18th centuries. A lively carved Mount of Olives group around 1759/1760 is attributed to the sculptor Johann Georg Itzlfeldner .
The interior of the nave shows profiled wall pillars and services with beam parts and above them a wooden barrel vault. The side chapels have Gothic reticulated vaults. The Gothic reticulated vault on the tower ground floor is marked 1539. The ribs of the vault in the choir were later chopped off.
Furnishing
The baroque interior was created after the church fire in 1815 and came from the Burghausen painter Tobias Schinagl and the painter Johann Michael Rottmayr, who was born in Laufen . Two large canvas paintings of Maria Immaculata and Guardian Angel around 1720 by the painter Cosmas Damian Asam have been transferred here from the Korbinian Chapel in Weihenstephan . Of the original 2 side altar paintings by Clemens Evangelist della Croce , only that of the donation of the rosary by the Mother of God to St. Dominic is preserved. The carved figures Wolfgang von Regensburg and Bonifatius in the choir were created by the sculptor Johann Meinrad Guggenbichler around 1700 . Above the entrance to the Kreuzkapelle is a crucifixion group, with the carved figures Maria and Johannes from the 1st quarter of the 16th century in the style of the master of the Altötting doors . The angels and four moving figures of the evangelists in the Kreuzkapelle were created in 1699/1670 by the sculptor Richard Högner from Tittmoning.

The organ with the prospectus by Johann Christoph Egedacher from 1740 was transferred here from Herrenchiemsee Abbey in 1816 . The organ work by Franz Borgias Maerz (1899) was converted to an electric action in 1970 and expanded in 1974. The disposition is:
