A first church consecration in honor of St. Willibald was carried out by Bishop Gundekar II of Eichstätt in 1060. It is not known whether Traunfeld was already its own parish at that time, but in 1322 the church was referred to as a parish church and in a visitation protocol from 1480 there are two parishes in Traunfeld and Two pastors spoke of a parish of St. Katharina and a parish of St. Willibald. The Eismannsberg and Deinschwang branches belonged to the parish church of St. Willibald. The reintroduction of the Catholic religion also meant the restoration of the dilapidated church in Traunfeld. Due to a lack of priests, Traunfeld was served by the Lauterhofen parish from 1634 to 1670, after which Traunfeld belonged to the Litzlohe parish until 1719. In 1719 Ballertshofen and Mettenhofen were re-parished from Lauterhofen to Traunfeld. The essentially early Gothic parish church of St. Willibald in Traunfeld underwent extensive structural changes around 1670.

Interesting interior with Rococo pulpit, altarpiece of Saint Willibald and a Mary in the rosary above the choir arch.
