history

Sign board

According to the parish archives, the church was first mentioned in a document in 1305. As one of the main churches in the village, it had had its own cemetery with burial rights since 1321. The choir and tower date from the 15th century, the nave from 1680. The place in front of the church served as a court in the Middle Ages. The associated sacristan's house was converted into a school building in the 17th century. During the restoration work in the 1980s, a still complete baroque holy grave was found, which is considered to be one of the largest in the country.

Furnishing

The interior has a rich interior in the style of the Renaissance and Baroque. The choir is provided with a ridge vault. The high altar painting from 1860 comes from the painter Friedrich Wasmann . The holy grave was created by the painter Sebastian Pockstaller around 1760/70. After the complete restoration of the figures and canvas paintings in 1986, it is rebuilt in the church every two years.
