The Buchbergkirchlein invites you to linger and gives a certain peace. A place to dream.

The branch church of Sts. Primus and Felizian is a Roman Catholic church in the town of Bischofshofen in the district of St. Johann im Pongau in the state of Salzburg. The church, also known as the Buchberg Church, stands in the village of Kreuzberg on a hill on the Buchberg in the northeast of the town, above the St. Rupert mission house. In the 11th century there was a castle complex belonging to the Lords of Pochburgh here, which was destroyed in the 13th century; however, the castle's Romanesque chapel has been preserved.
The unarticulated, single-nave, rectangular nave, which is essentially Romanesque, has a recessed, higher Gothic choir with a polygonal end in the east. The chamfered, early Gothic pointed arch portal in the west has a door with Gothic fittings. The Romanesque round arch portal in the south has a door with spiral fittings. Above the south portal and interrupted by a Romanesque blind window, there is a Gothic fresco frieze with a Maria lactans, flanked by Sts. Primus and Felizian, on the right you can see the crucifixion with Mary and John and to the side St. Catherine and Margaretha, all from the first half of the 14th century. Below this is the fresco Crucifixion around 1300. In the choir there are double-tiered buttresses and pointed arch windows with partly Gothic tracery. In the north there is a circular window and a covered tower staircase. To the north of the choir is the tower with cornices and a shingled pyramid roof from the Gothic construction phase. The bell floor has pilaster strips and bifora and trifora windows with columns. To the south of the choir is the single-storey sacristy under a pent roof from 1750.
