Pfarrkirche hl. Anna, Pöggstall

Pfarrkirche hl. Anna, Pöggstall, Gothic parish church in Pöggstall, Austria.

St. Anna in Pöggstall is a late Gothic hall church with two aisles, three bays, a straight east end and no apse. Two massive bundle piers carry net-ribbed vaults, and a masonry gallery from 1480 fills half the west bay. A neo-Gothic south tower with a tent roof was added in 1810, and a bridge over the moat links the west portal to the castle.

Built in 1480 under Kaspar von Rogendorf as a castle church and noble burial site, it was originally dedicated to Saint Giles. After the parish church of St. Anna im Felde was abandoned, it was elevated to parish church in 1810 and placed under the patronage of Saint Anne. The neo-Gothic south tower was added the same year.

The two medieval stained-glass panels in a south nave window were restored in 1984/85: the apostles, with St John identifiable, date from around 1400, and St Wolfgang from around 1450. The high altar, a late Gothic winged retable of about 1490, follows Martin Schongauer's engraving of around 1480 in its Crucifixion group.

The church stands on the edge of the castle moat, and a masonry bridge over the ditch links its west rectangular portal to the castle; a wooden bridge to the gallery once existed as well. The south tower, added in 1810, holds the entrance hall with a late Gothic shoulder-arched portal. The stepped base on the east side and the very high west base follow the slope into the moat.

The southern wall holds a 16th-century mural showing Saint Christopher alongside two family coats of arms from the Rogendorf and Liechtenstein dynasties. This fresco reveals the layered power and ownership that shaped the building's past.
