The Parish Church of St. Peter - The parish church of St. Peter was built in its current dimensions between 1820 and 1823. It has been preserved with only a few changes in its noble, restrained, classical furnishings.Its origin, a small wooden church, probably goes back to the 8th century. Like all Vohburg churches, the parish church of St. Peter has had extremely eventful times. The last extensive renovation took place between 1980 and 1983. During excavation work, remains of wood were secured that date back to 105 BC. and AD 70 have been dated. The tower has a size of approx. 4 x 4m and a height of approx. 28m. There are 4 bells in the bell tower: Ortisei - St. Josef - St. Maria - St. Peter.
