The Roman Catholic parish church of Waizenkirchen is located in the market town of Waizenkirchen in the Grieskirchen district of Upper Austria. The church, dedicated to Saints Peter and Paul, belongs to the Peuerbach deanery.

The church was built as a stone structure at the end of the 8th century under the bishops of Passau. In the 18th century, the Gothic church fell victim to fire twice. Due to the great poverty and hardship, reconstruction was only carried out in a simple manner. Extensions and several renovations followed until the present parish church was built. The late Baroque church with Gothic elements was restored in 1987 and boasts a remarkable interior. Key details about the church: The church tower, including the tower cross, is 48 meters high. The warrior bell, or Twelve-year-old, weighs 1,489 kilograms. The Gothic main portal. The Baroque main altar. An altarpiece of Mary, St. Sebastian, and the Cross. The four altarpieces were designed by the famous painter Martin Johann Schmidt, known as "Kremser Schmidt." At Christmas time, the Hallstatt nativity scene is displayed there.

The Roman Catholic parish church of St. Martin, as the parish church is called, belongs to the deanery of Kallham in the diocese of Linz.

The Jungfraustein... A natural monument of a wobbly stone.

Due to weather influences, the so-called wobbly or wobbly stones were formed in such a way that the upper stone can be moved with one hand without effort, but its position cannot be changed even with great effort. According to legend, three giant maidens brought the stones in their aprons. In Celtic and Germanic times, the stone structure is said to have served as a place of worship.
