Church of St. Margaretha

The present church of St. Margaretha is a reconstruction of an old church from 1898. The priest Josef Mangst undertook a complete reconstruction of the church in the historicist taste of the time, more precisely: in a mixed neo-Romanesque and neo-Gothic style. At that time, the tower was equipped with the semicircular windows of the bell tower, the triangular gables of the clock and the pointed helmet.

Church of St Hippolytus

The Church of St Hippolytus is said to have been built together with a monastery in the second half of the 8th century. Around the middle of the 10th century, a single-nave church was presumably built. It was replaced by a new building in the second third of the 12th century in the form of a basilica still without a tower. During the renovation in 1898, all Baroque art was completely removed from the church. Between 1972 and 1975, the church underwent extensive renovation. In 2012-13, the west tower was finally renovated and refurbished.

In 1866 the foundation stone for a new church in neo-gothic style was laid according to the plans of district engineer Pieschel. Jakob Ceconi was responsible for the construction.
