The parish village of Breitbrunn was first mentioned in documents in 1112. Ecclesiastically, Breitbrunn is mentioned as one of the branches when the parish of Stettfeld was founded and a medieval chapel is mentioned in 1420, which was enlarged in the 18th century.

Today the church, which was built between 1928 and 1931, towers over the town. It is dedicated to the apostle and evangelist Matthew, who can be seen on a statue in the church interior.

You can find the twelve o'clock ringing from St. Matthew's Church at:
