history

The Benedictine monastery of St. Candidus was founded in 769 by the Bavarian Duke Tassilo III. founded as a base for the Slavic mission. In addition, he gave the abbot Atto of St. Peter in Scharnitz the place India (Innichen), also called Campo Gelau ( Toblacher Feld ), including the area from the Tesido brook (Taisten or Casies brook ) to the Slavic border, i.e. to the rivolum montis Anarasi (brook from Anraser Berg), as the respective western and eastern borders of the San Candido monastery area. When Atto became Bishop of Freising in 783, Innichen came to the Freising Monastery and remained there until 1803. Around 1140 the monastery was converted into a collegiate monastery. The construction of the collegiate church began in 1143 and around 1280 the collegiate church received its present shape. After a fire in 1200, the church was rebuilt and consecrated in 1284. The bell tower was added between 1323 and 1326.
