Pfarrkirche hl. Vitus, Hollersbach

Pfarrkirche Heiliger Vitus is a parish church built in Romanesque Revival style with a slender pointed spire that rises prominently in the village landscape. The protected monument features the classical architectural details typical of churches constructed in the late 19th century.

The church was constructed in 1892 by architect Ferdinand Ranggetinger to replace an earlier Gothic church first recorded in 1348. Major restoration work took place from 1987 to 1990, returning the building to its proper condition.

The church serves as a central gathering place where the roughly 380 residents of Hollersbach mark their religious observances and community occasions. It remains woven into the daily rhythm and celebrations of village life.

The church is located at Hollersbach 1 and can be viewed from outside at any time, though visitors interested in entering should check with the local parish office for service times and visiting arrangements. Contact information is available if you need guidance on accessing the interior or attending a service.

Local residents of Hollersbach actively participated in the actual construction work during the 1890s, making the building effort a true community project that reflected deep ties to the new church. This hands-on involvement by villagers made the creation of this structure remarkably personal to the community.
