The current nave was rebuilt at the beginning of the 18th century; the oldest part of the church is the tower substructure from the late Romanesque.

history

prehistory

According to evidence, there were even two churches in Liel in the 10th century, both of which were subordinate to the Einsiedeln monastery . Two local churches in different settlement centers was not unusual at the time either. The older of the two churches was consecrated to John, which later changed, the younger church was consecrated to St. Pancras . Both churches must have existed around 1130, which was then abandoned in the course of the patriarchal court system.

Coat of arms of Hans Balthasar von Baden

The oldest part of the Lieler church is the lowest part of the bell tower from the late Romanesque period. The door installed later in the south wall of the tower bears the year 1590 and the initials HB VB for Hans Balthasar von Baden. The tower hall and its ribbed vaults go back to the 14th century. In the late Gothic period (1464), a burial chapel for the barons of Baden was built on the east side of the tower . The extension and the basement of the tower were painted several times in the 15th and 16th centuries. The oldest representations that are still poorly preserved today are four medallions in the tower hall from around 1464. Many of the works of art, such as a mandorla in the chapel that was still visible until 1908 , have not been preserved. Since the painting in the chapel came loose in many places, it was completely whitewashed in 1684.

New construction of the nave

In 1718 the nave was rebuilt. At the same time, the choir received new windows with segmental arches and a flat vaulted ceiling. Above the west entrance, the year reminds of the new building and the letters ICFFVB: MIFVB: GVFK to the nobles Johann Conrad Friedrich Freiherr von Baden, Maria Johanna Freifrau von Baden, geb. Baroness of Kagenegg. In 1720 miners from Liel erected a gilded figure of Saint Barbara brought from Rome and a statue of Fridolin of unknown origin.

Since the structural condition was already ruinous 100 years after the new building, a renovation was called for in the 1820s, which was delayed due to disputes about the building obligation. Except for minor repairs in 1832, in which the plasterer Jodok Friedrich Wilhelm was also involved, the urgently needed work was not carried out. It was not until 1850 to 1855 that work on the nave was completed and the tower and the burial chapel were also renovated.

In 1908 a new sacristy was built on the south wall of the bell tower and further frescoes were exposed in the burial chapel . The chapel was repaired from 1910 to 1912 and opened the walled-up windows. In addition to simple glazing, the coats of arms of noble families who worked in Liel and on the Upper Rhine were added. In 1914 a workshop in Sigmaringen created a new altar in the neo-Gothic style. Due to donations, the large ceiling painting in the nave was created in 1922 by the Karlsruhe artist Josef Mariano Kitschker (1879–1929).

In the years 1965 to 1968, extensive repairs were carried out, during which the connections between the choir and the tower hall and the southern side portal were closed. The baroque altar was replaced by a modern one. After completion of the work, the church was consecrated on October 6, 1968 by Auxiliary Bishop Karl Gnädinger .
