 **A wonderful church with new gothic stil.**

**1860 - 1869 the church was built. (Architect Wehrenfennig)**
--------------------------------------------------------------

The entire carvings, except the altar crucifix by Erler, were made by the [**Gosau**](https://dachstein.salzkammergut.at/en/gosau-at-dachstein.html?utm_campaign=tourdata&utm_medium=text&utm_source=tourda) head teacher Hage (formerly a teacher of the wood school [**Hallstatt**](https://dachstein.salzkammergut.at/en/hallstatt.html?utm_campaign=tourdata&utm_medium=text&utm_source=tourda)) and his students. All stones come from Gosau quarries, the baptismal font is from Dachstein marble and was donated by the [**Gosau whetstone hewers**](https://dachstein.salzkammergut.at/en/crafts-customs-and-tradition/artikel/detail/3978/grindstone-quarry-gosau-at-dachstein.html?utm_campaign=tourdata&utm_medium=text&utm_source=tourda).

Today's organ - built in **1902** - was then the 750th from the organ building **Steinmayer**. Originally there were three bronze bells on the bell tower. These were used in World War for weapons production. Later they were replaced by steel bells.
