Tips
At 94 m, the Villach parish church tower is the highest church tower in Carinthia. The building was already famous in the Middle Ages, as an Italian chronicler wrote in 1486 that this tower was as magnificent as none in Venice at the time.

The Roman Catholic main parish church of Villach is dedicated to St. James. The spacious, late Gothic hall church with a west tower stands in a commanding position at the end of the main square in Villach.
