Pfarrkirche Ravelsbach

Pfarrkirche Ravelsbach, Baroque parish church in Ravelsbach, Austria.

Pfarrkirche Ravelsbach is a Baroque basilica-style church built from 1721 to 1726 to plans by Jakob Prandtauer, modelled on the Melk Abbey church. It stands on the south side of the main square, 40 metres long and 21 metres wide across the transept, with a 50-metre tower from the earlier church integrated into the facade. The nave rises 19 metres, the choir 16 metres.

The church originated around 1100 as a Romanesque building constructed by the Counts of Burghausen-Schala and was consecrated in 1110 by Bishop Ulrich I of Passau. A baroque renovation later transformed its appearance into what visitors see today.

The parish is the mother parish of the western Weinviertel; 32 villages belonged to it in 1113. Since 1651 its priests have come from Melk Abbey, and the parish registers begun by Johann Thoma, the last secular priest, in 1651 are still kept. The church is dedicated to the Assumption of Mary.

The church stands free on the south side of Ravelsbach's main square, its 50-metre tower visible from the square itself. The building is a protected monument and is entered from the square side; the park behind the church, laid out in 1904, offers a spot to view the exterior walls and the choir.

The church stands on 12,000 white-fir piles driven 4.8 metres deep into former marshland, topped with layers of stone slabs. Its main walls are 1.1 metres thick, and records show 964,150 bricks were used, at a cost of 27,904 gulden.
