Parish Church of St. Michael, Tisis

Old Catholic parish church of St. Michael
The church in the cluster village of Tisis, incorporated into the city of Feldkirch in 1925, was mentioned in a document in 1218 and was consecrated in 1442. The ownership of a vineyard was mentioned for 1610, which went to the Ottobeuren monastery in 1696. The church was the mother church of the Tosters district.
Located on a hill, surrounded by a cemetery, the nave with a wider choir stands under a slightly bent gable roof. The main portal side in the west with a gable facade has a large wooden sign under a hipped roof. The church tower with a hipped gable roof stands to the south of the choir with an adjacent sacristy on the nave under a lean-to roof. There is an ossuary in the basement of the choir. On the facade there is a fresco of St. George with dragons from the second half of the 14th century. Further frescoes from around 1450 show the Adoration of the Magi, the Crucifixion with Mary and John, the Resurrection, and Christopher. On the east side of the sacristy there are remains of frescoes with John the Baptist, Mary with Child, St. Michael, donor family and coat of arms from the 16th century.
The high altar from 1680 shows an altarpiece of St. Michael, marked W K Dornbirn 1862. The left side altar around 1700 shows the altarpiece of St. Johannes Evangelist by the painter Franz Xaver Bobleter from 1860. The right side altar, analogous to the left, shows the altarpiece of St. Dominic with Mary and child by Franz Xaver Bobleter from 1859. The pulpit with a bulging basket and canopy lid was created around 1790. There is a picture of Mary with child and the 14 helpers with the Battle of Tisis with an Antonius chapel in the background by Mathias Jehly from 1816.
