Protestant church in Gosau

The Protestant church, constructed between 1864 and 1869, features pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and a distinct spire crowning the southern choir.

Hermann Wehrenfennig, who studied at the Polytechnical Institute in Vienna, designed this church to replace the previous prayer house from 1784.

The interior displays wooden carvings by Gosau teacher Hager, including a Trinity altar showing the motif of vine and branches with apostles Peter and Paul.

The church stands opposite Brigittaheim rest home, with access to local amenities within 1 kilometer and public transport connections from Steeg-Gosau station.

The construction materials include stones from Gosau quarries and marble from the Dachstein area, integrating local resources into the building structure.
