St. Jacob, Gothic church in Urtijëi, Italy
The St. Jacob church displays Gothic architectural features, including pointed arches and ribbed vaults that define its structural composition.
Dating back to the 12th century, St. Jacob stands as the first church constructed in the Val Gardena valley, marking the beginning of religious architecture in the area.
The presbytery contains Gothic frescoes and 16th-century murals that tell the story of St. Jacob through detailed religious art.
The St. Jacob Legend Trail, starting at Santa Cristina parish church, guides visitors through a 6-kilometer path with 16 informational panels in three languages.
According to regional records, Count Jakob von Stetteneck funded the church's construction after his return from Santiago di Compostela as a gesture of gratitude.
