Pfarrkirche Mariä Himmelfahrt, Baroque parish church in Ebbs, Austria.
Pfarrkirche Mariä Himmelfahrt in Ebbs is a Baroque structure with a central tower rising above white exterior walls and surrounded by a cemetery. The building sits within the Tyrolean landscape near Kufstein.
The church was built between 1748 and 1756 under the direction of Bavarian architect Abraham Millauer, marking his final project. This construction concluded a long career as one of southern Germany's most important Baroque architects.
The church displays work by artist Josef Martin Lengauer, including an altar that incorporates a medieval wooden Madonna and Child figure. This sculpture comes from an earlier building and connects different time periods within the same space.
The building is accessible daily during opening hours and located centrally in the village near Kaiserbergstrasse. Visitors should wear sturdy shoes for the cemetery grounds around the church and be prepared for uneven terrain.
The ceiling frescoes by Josef Adam Mölk depict detailed scenes from Mary's life, from her birth through her marriage to her ascension. These paintings form a visual narrative spanning the entire interior space.
