Pfarrkirche Ravelsbach, Baroque parish church in Ravelsbach, Austria.
Pfarrkirche Ravelsbach is a Roman Catholic church with a tall Gothic tower and multiple side chapels positioned on the south side of the main square. The interior displays baroque styling and features an altar painting of the Assumption of Mary.
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 altar shows the Assumption of Mary and reflects the religious life of the community. The building serves as a gathering place for local celebrations and daily worship throughout the year.
The church sits on the south side of the main square and is easy to locate on foot. Visitors should note that regular services take place and entry should be respectful of ongoing worship.
The interior houses a baroque organ built by Gottfried Sonnholz in 1740 that still plays today. A late medieval baptismal font carved from reddish spotted marble reveals the craftsmanship of earlier centuries.
