Pfarrkirche Mariä Himmelfahrt, Parish church in Thaur, Austria.

The Pfarrkirche Mariä Himmelfahrt features a four-bay nave with a transept and a retracted choir covered by a barrel vault with lunettes.

Archaeological findings during the 1986 restoration revealed an early Christian worship site from the 5th century, preceding the current church structure.

The ceiling frescoes, created between 1878 and 1880 by Franz Xaver Pernlochner II, depict Saint Romedius interceding for the village of Thaur.

The church maintains its function as an active parish church, conducting regular religious services and ceremonies for the local community.

The interior decorations include self-portraits of the artist and contemporary figures, including the parish priest Alois Gräber from the late 19th century.
