Pfarrkirche Maria im Dorn, Parish church in Feldkirchen in Kärnten, Austria.

The Maria im Dorn church stands at the end of Kirchgasse, elevated above the Tiebel River, featuring a three-aisled Romanesque pillar basilica and a five-story chancel tower.

Built after 1166 on the site of an earlier wooden structure, the church underwent fortification in 1476 following Turkish invasions and was captured by Hungarian forces in 1480.

The baroque high altar from 1738 displays a central Virgin Mary statue with Saints Peter and Paul, while the northern aisle contains a Gothic wing altar from 1510.

The church holds regular services on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays at 7:30 AM, with Sunday Mass celebrated at either 7:30 AM or 10:00 AM.

The church name originates from a shepherd's discovery of a Marian image in a thorn bush that repeatedly returned to its original location overnight.
