The Amras parish church is on Philippine-Welser-Straße in the Amras district of the municipality of Innsbruck. The parish church dedicated to the feast of the Assumption of Mary - it is incorporated into the Wilten Abbey - belongs to the dean's office in Innsbruck in the diocese of Innsbruck. The church is a listed building (list entry).
A church is documented in 1221, which was consecrated to St. Pancras and Bishop Zeno, later St. Wolfgang added, the patronage of the Assumption has been since 1408. In 1968 the remains of the foundations of a Romanesque apse were uncovered.
The church has been looked after by the Premonstratensians from Wilten Abbey since 1259.
Today's three-bay late Gothic church was consecrated in 1489. It is the only church on the Innsbruck valley floor that has retained its striking Gothic tower with a pointed helmet to this day. On the north nave wall, late Gothic wall paintings with remains of a Passion cycle from the end of the 15th century were uncovered. In 1677, 1712 and 1756 the interior was redesigned in Baroque style, and Josef Adam Mölk created the ceiling frescoes.
The Gothic village church, surrounded by a cemetery, has a steep gable roof and a slender south tower with a pointed helmet, which can be seen from afar.
A lower choir with a retracted choir arch and five-eighth end closes off the nave with round arched windows, coffin cornice and triangular pilaster strips under a steep gable roof. The sound windows of the tower are coupled and have a three-pass closure. The entrance portal in the western gable front has a columned portico with a richly profiled pointed arch portal from approx. 1460, above it a wall painting with the Adoration of Our Lady by Hans Andre (1945).
The interior of the church consists of the three-bay nave with a pointed triumphal arch and a retracted single-bay choir with a five-eighth end. On the south side of the choir, a grooved pointed arch portal with an old banded iron door leads into the tower. Above the portal is a chamfered round arched gate. The nave has a stitch cap vault on pilasters and closes in the west with a straight gallery. On the walls and in the vault there are rococo stucco paintings with grisaille painting imitating this stucco. The painting fields show the Assumption of Mary in the choir, the execution of Pankratius, Mary Marriage in the nave, Saint Wolfgang with church above the organ, the evangelists and Old Testament scenes and putti in the vaulted cuffs.
The high altar from the middle of the 18th century has an open four-column aedicula with a late Gothic sculpture of the Virgin and Child (around 1490), in the essay God the Father with the dove of the Holy Spirit and angels. The baroque tabernacle has twisted columns.
The popular altar shows a relief of the Last Supper on the antependium (around 1800).
A carved relief depicting the Lamentation of Christ from a Gothic altar around 1500 is attached to the north wall of the nave.
The main body of the organ with a sculpture of the Archangel Michael was created by Franz Reinisch I in 1840 - Reinisch-Pirchner built the work with a new Rückpositiv in 1960.
The big bell of the chimes was cast in 1491 by the bell founder Peter Löffler in Hötting. The bell shows the coats of arms of Archduke Sigmund, Catherine of Saxony and Maximilian I.
