Pfarrkirche Maria Gail, Gothic parish church in Villach, Austria
The stone church features a net-ribbed vault ceiling, tower, organ gallery, Anna Chapel, and presbytery built during its 1450 expansion period.
First documented in 1136, the church suffered destruction during Turkish invasions in 1478, leading to the installation of the Turkish Bell still present today.
The high altar contains a wooden carved Madonna and Child from 1600, serving as the center of pilgrimage devotion at Maria Gail.
The parish office opens every Tuesday from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM, with regular masses held daily and additional services on Sundays and holidays.
Late Romanesque frescoes from the second half of the 13th century remain preserved on the nave walls, representing the oldest decorative elements.
