Mariä Lichtmess, Architectural heritage monument in Inkofen, Rottenburg an der Laaber, Germany
Mariä Lichtmess is a neo-Gothic church in Inkofen with three aisles and traditional Bavarian architectural design. The structure displays symmetrical forms and vertical lines that define this building style.
The church was consecrated by Bishop Ignatius von Senestrey in 1873 and marked an important moment for religious development in the region. Neo-Gothic style was a popular choice for church construction during this period.
Life-sized apostle figures from the 16th century show the craftsmanship and religious art of their era through careful detail. They shape how the interior feels today and connect visitors to medieval artistic traditions.
The location holds regular services for visitors and was modernized with heating systems in 1981. Information about opening times and special events can be obtained locally or through the parish office.
The church is part of a parish network that coordinates multiple congregations and shares resources for community activities. This arrangement shows how religious communities work together today.
