Stadtpfarrkirche

Stadtpfarrkirche is a Gothic parish church in Hall in Tirol featuring a 67-meter tower topped with an onion dome. Inside, visitors find three side altars by sculptor Gregor Fritz and the Waldauf Chapel housing a relic collection and Baroque artwork.

An original chapel was first mentioned in 1281 and underwent reconstruction in 1352 to serve the growing population of the salt mining town. The church tower collapsed during an earthquake in 1670 and was rebuilt in Baroque style by 1676.

The main chapel displays paintings depicting Hall in Tirol under the Virgin Mary's protection, alongside images of Western Church Fathers. These religious artworks shape the visual experience and reflect the place's importance to local worshippers.

The church is open during regular hours and allows visitors to explore the interior independently or attend services. Guided tours are available for those wanting to learn more about the artworks and architecture.

The tower collapsed during an earthquake in 1670 and was rebuilt in Baroque style, creating a hybrid of two architectural styles. This forced reconstruction gave it the distinctive onion dome that now defines the city skyline.
