Filialkirche hl. Veit, Telfs, Gothic church building in Telfs, Austria.

The St. Vitus Church features a steep gabled roof, a polygonal choir, and a square tower topped with an octagonal bell house and onion dome.

The church received its initial consecration in 1384 by Bishop Albert of Brixen and underwent Gothic-style modifications in 1641 with a renewed dedication in 1648.

Until 1809, residents from Mittenwald made pilgrimages to St. Vitus Church on the patron saint's day, followed by a market for scythes and whetstones.

The church stands at 864 meters above sea level at the eastern end of a plateau, near Berghof Inn and at the foot of Hohe Munde mountain.

Between 1981 and 1986, restoration work revealed secco paintings on the walls dating from 1618 to 1648, which were subsequently uncovered and preserved.
