The Church of the Elevation of the Cross, called Bergkirchl, has a baroque high altar and two side altars. The new building was completed in 1823, and the extension was completed in 1862. Renovation work took place in 1981. A romantic avenue of lime trees with the Stations of the Cross leads to the Bergkirchl. The church is only open for services on special holidays and weddings as well as during the mountain festival week.
