St. Martin, Church building in Prissian, South Tyrol, Italy

St. Martin is a small Roman Catholic chapel in Prissian, a hamlet of Tisens in South Tyrol. It is a simple rectangular building with a recessed choir, a side tower topped by a pointed spire, and a flat-ceilinged interior. The baroque altarpiece depicting St. Martin of Tours was painted by Stefan Kessler.

A document of 1383 names a "Conradus dictus Stauder de Prissian provisor Capellae S. Martini", the first written trace of the chapel; the dedication to Martin of Tours points to an earlier origin. St. Martin stood under the protection of nearby Katzenzungen Castle, and the lords of Breisach may have had it enlarged. Around 1630 it received its present form; restoration followed in 1975 and 2004, and it was placed under monument protection on 5 October 1981.

The chapel is dedicated to St. Martin of Tours, and its patronal feast is celebrated on 11 November. In the 19th century one Mass was held here every month, plus three annual services. The baroque altarpiece by Stefan Kessler shows the church patron.

St. Martin stands in the hamlet of Prissian, a fraction of the municipality of Tisens. The chapel is a small rectangular building with an attached side tower, so the exterior can be circled on foot in a few minutes. It is a protected monument and not a parish church, so opening times are not guaranteed; the patronal feast is celebrated on 11 November.

The baroque altarpiece depicting St. Martin of Tours was painted by Stefan Kessler. The chapel was first documented in 1383, when a document named "Conradus dictus Stauder de Prissian provisor Capellae S. Martini". In the 19th century, a Mass was held here every month and three services annually.
