Pastoral care

At the time of the establishment of St. Sebastian, Krün was a branch of the Mittenwald parish of St. Peter and Paul . From the late 18th century onwards, wealthy Kruners tried to get a beneficiary permanently residing in Krün to be deposited through foundations , but this did not succeed for financial reasons. It was only later that Krün became an independent parish curate , which, however , is looked after from Wallgau .
