Tips
The Catholic parish church of St. Jakob was built between 1890 and 1893. The church tower from 1606 was built from stones from the Kreuzberg Church in Wiesau for the previous church, a neo-Romanesque basilica.
The three-aisled building has a recessed chancel that closes on three sides. The wall paintings show scenes from the lives of Peter and Paul, and below them are medallions with saints and prophets. The altar vault shows the Maiestas domini on a gold mosaic background.translated by
