St. Nikolaus in Gfrill

The St. Nikolaus church features a single-nave structure with a polygonal choir, pointed arch portal, and cross-ribbed vaulting in the interior.

The church originated as a simple Romanesque rectangular building in the 13th century, with Gothic choir additions and late Gothic modifications in the 16th century.

The southern exterior wall displays 14th-century frescoes depicting the Crucifixion group, while interior walls contain 15th-century paintings of the Last Judgment.

Located along State Road 38 'delle Palade', the church stands at coordinates 46°33'2.9"N, 11°8'39.3"E, connecting the regions of Burggrafenamt and Nonsberg.

The church underwent baroque modifications in the 17th century, including a flat ceiling and enlarged windows, which were partially reversed during later restorations.
