Chapel of St. Placidus and Rochus, Alp Flix, Tigias

Chapel of St. Placidus and Rochus, Alp Flix, Tigias
The Chapel of St. Placidus and Rochus was built around the middle of the 14th century with an extension for a pastor's apartment by the Walsers who had moved there. Alp Flix developed very strongly and at that time also had its own pastor. Even at that time the parish was looked after by a local pastor, in the person of Thomas Jäger. The chapel was dedicated to Saints Placi and Sigisbert and only later, after the plague in 1629/30, was it dedicated to the saint of plagues Rochus. The chapel was restored in 1982/83. The apartment and the sacristy, however, were not.
