Parish church Dornbirn-Schoren, Roman Catholic parish church in Schoren district, Dornbirn, Austria.
The Parish Church Dornbirn-Schoren is a church building in the Schoren district with a bell tower containing five bells and separate choir areas within the main hall. The interior is arranged in multiple spaces that accommodate worship services and religious ceremonies.
The current structure was built in 1826 and replaced a 1467 chapel founded by brothers Hanns and Jakob von Ems and dedicated to Saint Sebastian. This earlier structure shaped the religious life of the community for centuries.
The interior displays paintings of Christian martyrs and saints created by local artists across different periods. These works shape the visitor's experience and show the artistic tradition of the region.
The building is located at Schorenquelle 5 and remains open for worship services and religious ceremonies such as baptisms and weddings. Visitors should keep in mind that regular service times apply and the building is actively used during worship hours.
The architectural design of the 1826 building was directly inspired by a church in Balgach, Switzerland. This model shows the cross-border artistic influences that were active in the region at that time.
