Pfarrkirche Lichtenau im Waldviertel, Gothic parish church in Lichtenau im Waldviertel, Austria
The Pfarrkirche Lichtenau displays a Gothic nave from the 14th century with subsequent baroque modifications and a west tower added in 1827.
The church's location in Loiwein was first documented in 1141, becoming an independent parish in 1783 under the Cistercian Abbey of Lilienfeld supervision.
Gothic frescoes discovered during the 1992 renovation works reveal the rich artistic heritage preserved within the church's stone walls.
The parish office welcomes visitors Monday through Friday from 7:45 AM to 11:45 AM, with extended hours until 7:00 PM on Tuesdays.
The chancel features an early 15th-century trifoliate gallery and a stone-framed Gothic sacramental niche with intricate architectural details.
