Erhardkirche, Baroque parish church in Nonntal, Austria.
Erhardkirche is a baroque parish church in Nonntal featuring two square towers crowned by a dome. A double flight of steps leads to the main entrance of the building.
The church was completed in 1689 by architect Giovanni Gaspare Zugalli, replacing a small chapel. It gained its status as a parish church in 1853.
Inside, artists Francesco and Carl-Antonio Brenno created works including the high altar depicting Saint Ottilia's baptism by Saint Erhard. These artistic details reflect the veneration of these saints within the local community.
The church is accessible daily, and information on-site will help you orient yourself. Keep in mind service times when planning your visit.
Next to the church sits a wall fountain with a lion head gargoyle dispensing water from a mineral spring. Local residents once valued this water for its purifying properties.
