Pfarrkirche Wörgl, Parish church in Wörgl, Austria.

Pfarrkirche Wörgl is a parish church in the town of Wörgl featuring baroque architecture with symmetrical towers and refined stonework. The interior centers on a main nave decorated with baroque ornamental details.

A first masonry chapel stood here around 1212; its 6 × 10 m foundations were found under the nave floor in 1961. A Gothic church with four altars followed in 1479, consecrated by Bishop Georg of Chiemsee. After the town fire of 4 June 1836 destroyed the Baroque church, the nave was extended and reconsecrated on 16 September 1844. The 1912 extension by Peter von Stadl gave the present neo-Baroque form.

The church is dedicated to Saint Lawrence (Laurentius) and belongs to the Deanery of Kufstein in the Archdiocese of Salzburg. The only surviving piece from the Gothic church of 1479 is a Gothic Madonna carved around 1500, now placed in the north part of the transept. The 1912 extension moved the sacrament house to the south wall of the nave.

The church stands on a small rise above the town centre, its west facade facing the Bahnhofstrasse axis; the main entrance is reached from the square side. The 1912 transept, about 25 m long, sits behind the north tower, so walk around the building to see the full neo-baroque outline. The concrete vault makes the interior cool even in summer.

The 1912 extension gave the church one of the first reinforced-concrete vaults in Austria-Hungary, the second such church in the empire. In 1945 this proved its worth during the bombing of Wörgl, though the paint on the concrete did not hold. The large iron girders for the crossing vault were bent in the locomotive shed north of the station and hauled down Bahnhofstraße to the church.
