St. Pankratius

St. Pankratius features a three-nave hall design with rounded arch windows, buttresses supporting vaulted ceilings, and a stone bell tower dating from 1150.

The original church from 1150 underwent reconstruction between 1705 and 1710, followed by immediate repairs after a fire in 1715 damaged the structure.

The interior displays intricate baroque decorations, including angel heads on church pews, a high altar with crucifixion scenes, and detailed saint sculptures.

The church received extensive renovations in 2012, modernizing its facilities while maintaining its historical architectural elements and religious artifacts.

The pulpit rests upon a figure of Tanchelinus, a historical preacher who, according to local tradition, carries the word of God on his shoulders.
