Engelbertkirche, Hohe Wand

Engelbertkirche is a Roman Catholic church building with white stone walls and geometric patterns located in Stollhof on Hohe Wand. A prominent tower at the front makes it visible from a distance.

The building was completed in 1935 by architect Robert Kramreiter and replaced an earlier chapel project. Its construction was connected to political events of that period.

The church is named after Saint Engelbert of Cologne, and a stone statue of this saint stands at the entrance. This figure greets visitors immediately and shows the religious connection that shaped the building's purpose.

The church is mainly accessible during scheduled masses on specific days throughout the year. Visitors should check in advance about timing to plan a visit appropriately.

Inside the church, marble plates cover the spot where a mural by artist Max Frey once hung. That mural depicted figures with a political connection to the country's history.
