history

The previous building of today's church was in such poor condition in 1714 that the provost of Bernried Abbey was sued for lack of maintenance. The parish church at that time was subordinate to him from 1135 until secularization in Bavaria in 1803, when the parish of Magnetsried was incorporated into the parish of Seeshaupt. However, due to the lack of funds in the Bernried Monastery, no new building could initially be built. Construction began in 1718, but it was not until the curate of the Weilheimer Spital , Georg Gerold, who came from Magnetsried, died in 1723 and bequeathed most of his fortune to his home parish, that faster progress could be made.

The present church was - as the Assumption Church in neighboring Jenhausen - on May 21, 1734 by Bishop Johann Jakob von Mayr opened . The plans are attributed to Johann Georg Ettenhofer .

The two-storey sacristy is attached to the slightly detached choir - which is not semicircular but flattened in the east . The church interior is spanned by a stitch cap vault. At the west end there is the church tower with an onion dome , as well as a double gallery, the upper one being built in after 1820. The balusters there come from the Polling monastery library .
