Expositurkirche Zöblen, Religious landmark and war memorial in Zöblen, Austria

The Expositurkirche Zöblen is a church building with a single-nave layout, barrel vaulting, and a steep roof covered with wooden shingles. The semicircular choir connects to an attached sacristy adjoining the main structure.

On 11 September 1681 the community received permission from Rath Franz Wilhelm Aimayr to build a chapel to St Joseph, completed in 1682. At the end of the 1780s it was enlarged into a single-nave church with a barrel vault and consecrated on 26 August 1793; Zöblen became a chaplaincy in 1790 and an Expositur of Tannheim parish in 1794. A fire on 21 February 1832 badly damaged the church, but the interior survived largely intact apart from the organ, and repairs followed.

The interior ceiling bears frescoes created by Johann Kärle in 1887, showing the veneration of the Eucharist and moments from the lives of Joseph and the Holy Family. These paintings shape how the space looks and feels for visitors today.

The cemetery lies southwest across from the church, enclosed by a low wall, with the war chapel built into its southern side. The memorial there carries two commemorative plaques and the inscription "Unsern teuern Helden der Weltkriege aus den Jahren 1914/18", so it names both world wars, not only the First.

The four bells in the tower were cast in 1948 by the Oberascher foundry in Salzburg from a special alloy and consecrated on 5 December 1948 by Provikar Draxl. They are tuned to a1, h1, cis2 and e2, and the largest bell has a clapper catcher.
