Karlskirche, Monastery church in Volders, Austria
The Karlskirche features six domes and a rounded tower, stretching 50 meters in length and 30 meters in width along Volderwaldstraße.
Construction of the church began in 1620 but faced delays due to financial constraints and the Thirty Years' War, reaching completion in 1654.
Martin Knoller painted the ceiling frescoes between 1765 and 1766, depicting Saint Charles Borromeo and scenes from his life.
The church and monastery complex underwent a major renovation from 1977 to 1988, with costs reaching 33 million Austrian schillings.
A stone near the entrance, known as the Stone of Obedience, marks where construction materials allegedly stopped falling after Guarinoni's intervention.
