Sankt Michael, Religious complex with church and cemetery in Ellmau, Austria.

Sankt Michael is a south-facing baroque hall church with a cemetery in Ellmau. Its core-gothic tower rises east of the choir, topped by a pointed spire with bell-shaped gables on four sides. The west portal of 1740 has a carved wooden door and a niche figure of St Michael.

A church on this site is documented around 1215 and again in 1378. The present baroque building was erected from 1740 to 1746 to plans by the architect and stuccoist Jakob Singer. The high altar was built in 1765 by Josef Martin Lengauer and altered in the 19th century.

The church displays ceiling paintings by Georg Höttinger and contains a high altar by Josef Martin Lengauer with rococo side altars by Franz Stitz. These artworks shape the interior and give the space its distinctive character.

The church stands in the village centre of Ellmau, with the cemetery and war memorial beside it; church and cemetery are both listed as protected monuments. The building is oriented to the south, so the west front with its 1740 portal and the statue of St Michael is the entrance side to look for. The tower rises on the east side of the choir.

The tower's core is Gothic, older than the 1740–1746 baroque nave built to plans by Jakob Singer. Its pointed spire rises above four bell-shaped curved gables, one on each side, and the west portal of 1740 carries a carved wooden door with a niche figure of St Michael above it.
