The first church in Wallgau was built in 1295. At the end of the 15th century, a hall church with a stone-vaulted choir extension in the Gothic style was built at the same place. It was dedicated to James the Greater. The choir has a net rib vault with tracery of the choir apex window. The baroque church tower with onion dome and today's sacristy were built in 1680. The high altar was erected in 1683. The church tower was renewed between 1723 and 1724. After several letters of protest to the bishop, the renovation work was completed in 1730. The painted Stations of the Cross in the church remained the last redecoration for a long time. At the end of the 18th century the church became an independent parish. Various extensions and conversions also followed in the 19th and 20th centuries. In 1988 the most recent extensive interior and exterior restoration took place, followed by the renewal of the technical systems.
