Urlaubsregion Vitalwelt Bad Schallerbach

About 1,300 years ago, Christianity may have gained a foothold in this area.

So it can be assumed that the evangelization of the Trattnachtal was carried out by the messengers of the faith of Saint Robert from Salzburg. But as I said, this consideration is only to be accepted. The first church in Taufkirchen an der Trattnach was probably a wooden church.

Due to the lack of historical documents, the age of the parish cannot be determined exactly.

The epitaph was probably erected in 1607, since Grimmelius died in 1617. Grimmelius created the oldest Urban in 1600. The outside of the church is also adorned with old tombstones made of red marble next to the sacristy outside door from 1553. The oldest tombstone points to a priest. Letters that are still legible and the gothic goblet shape reveal that the jewel is from the 15th century. It adorns the bell tower of the church tower.

The largest epitaph came as an "entry stone" in front of the main portal of the church. Because of the heavy weight and the illegible inscription, the walls were not walled in. It may have fallen victim to a pickaxe later when the church square was renovated.

The grave monuments mentioned lay on the floor of the nave and were walled in under Pastor Klinger in 1899.

A beautiful Gothic church with an interesting side aisle with an altar dedicated to St. Sebastian. Unfortunately, there are no benches to rest on around the church.
