The first mention of the church dates back to 1280. According to historical documents, however, it was built between 1250 and 1260.
In 1683 the Turks raged in the area around Phyra. They reduced the Cecilia Church and the farm of the Wald Lordship to rubble and ashes. The church was partially rebuilt the following year. In the 18th century the Baroque style took place.
Finally, in 1805, at the time of the Napoleonic Wars, the church was again plundered and destroyed by French troops.

A very interesting church ruin, not far from the Perschlingtal cycle path. But be careful, there is a danger of collapse!

The ruins of St. Cecilia's Church are located between Böheimkirchen and Pyhra in the Perersdorf district, just a few hundred meters from the West Autobahn. The remaining ruins date from a 14th-century church. The church is a listed building.
