Pfarrkirche Heiliger Philippus ob Sonegg

Pfarrkirche Heiliger Philippus ob Sonegg, Parish church and cemetery in Sittersdorf, Austria.

Pfarrkirche Heiliger Philippus ob Sonegg is a Roman Catholic parish church on elevated ground in Tichoja, at the southern edge of Pfannsdorf in the municipality of Sittersdorf, Carinthia. Its massive west tower has an octagonal pointed spire and paired Romanesque sound windows; a two-storey Baroque sacristy stands north of the choir. The four-bay nave carries a late Gothic net-rib vault on round wall supports from the first quarter of the 16th century, and the square choir bay has a 14th-century cross-rib vault.

A church at this site was first documented in 1329; its Romanesque core survives. The building was renewed in the 14th and 16th centuries, giving the nave its late Gothic net-rib vault from the first quarter of the 16th century. An exterior restoration from 1994 to 1996 recovered the 16th-century architectural polychromy.

The church is dedicated to Saint Philip and serves as a gathering place where the local community comes together for services and celebrations. The interior spaces with their late Gothic vaults create an environment that connects visitors to the long religious tradition of the place.

The church stands elevated in Tichoja at the southern edge of Pfannsdorf, in the municipality of Sittersdorf. A cemetery wall surrounds both the church and the graveyard, and the former burial chapel of the Orsini-Rosenberg family, built 1812 to 1817, now serves as a wake hall. The site is an active parish church, so visitors should keep to the paths and respect services.

On the west wall of the nave, in the tower's upper storey, a wall painting shows Christ with the instruments of the Passion, dated 1576. The church also keeps a Gothic stone Madonna of the 14th century in the tower porch; her head, shoulders and the child were added later.
