Wallfahrtskirche auf dem Schönenberg


"Pilgrimage Church With Enchanting Frescoes"

The pilgrimage church on the Schönenberg was planned by the master-builder Michael Thumb and consecrated in 1685. As early as 1709, a fire due to a lightning strike destroyed almost all of the church's furnishings. As part of the renovation in 1709-29, the ceilings were redesigned under the direction of the Mainz court architect Maximilian von Welsch, the Tyrolean Melchior Steidl created the frescoes, the high altar was designed by Welsch and executed by Kaspar Buchmüller. The wall pillar system is the first example of the so-called Vorarlberg construction scheme. The stucco decoration is particularly impressive.
