Pfarrkirche Mariä Himmelfahrt

Pfarrkirche Mariä Himmelfahrt, Parish church in Anger, Germany

Description

Pfarrkirche Mariä Himmelfahrt is a Late Gothic church in Anger featuring a slender tower crowned by a double onion dome. The structure is built from sandstone blocks and sits on elevated ground, giving it a prominent presence in the village.

History

The church was consecrated in 1447, marking an important moment in the region's religious development. In 1717, a major renovation removed the central pillar to create an open interior space.

Culture

The name refers to the Assumption of Mary, a central theme in Christian faith that shaped the church's spiritual purpose. Visitors can see how the interior artwork and altar arrangements reflect this devotion and its importance to the local community.

Practical

The church is located centrally in Anger at Dorfplatz and is easy to reach on foot. The interior and surroundings are accessible to visitors during open hours.

Did you know?

The church displays a rare architectural blend where hall church elements combine with a single-nave structure, a feature found in southern Alpine regions and Bohemia. This mixed design makes it a distinctive example of Late Gothic church building traditions.
