A very beautiful lakeside promenade, easily accessible by bike. The baroque church next door is also worth a visit!

During an excursion, we had the pleasure of climbing the two onion domes and learning all sorts of interesting and amusing stories about the more than 300-year-old parish church. It is believed that plans from a southern German church were used. This is why the two onion domes seem somewhat foreign in the church landscape of Märchl. The Lachen Parish Church is an outstanding example of a Baroque church building, intended to showcase the beauty of the Catholic faith. The church was built between 1707 and 1710 by Peter and Gabriel Thumb from Vorarlberg and consecrated in 1711. Since then, it has been the unmistakable landmark of Lachen and remains a much-visited place of silent and communal prayer. The following information is intended to introduce you to the mystery of this church space. The Baroque is the Catholic response to the Reformation in the 16th century, carved in stone and wood. Not iconoclasm, but images and colors in abundance. Not a sober focus on the Word, but a magnificent unfolding of the Christian message in images, symbols, and ornaments. The whole person is to be addressed and rise up to God. The Lachner parish church is dedicated to the Holy Cross and celebrates its patron saint's day on the Exaltation of the Cross (September 14th or the second Sunday in September). The external celebration – the Chilbi – has been scheduled a week earlier since the 1940s. The name of the church reflects its artistic program: Jesus on the cross draws all eyes. The upper panel of the high altar depicts Abraham, at God's command, intending to sacrifice his son Isaac. This story from the Old Testament was early on interpreted as referring to the sacrificial death of Christ. A special reminiscence of the cross can be found in the Lachner parish coat of arms (albeit reversed!): a T-shaped cross with a bronze serpent.

Comfortable, relaxed, great view of the water, here you can "calm down" again :-)

I just don't understand Road&Gravel's statement - it doesn't matter how you get there. Now to the actual spot: a beautiful church and if you have time you should take a look.

It has benches to enjoy the view while having a snack or lunch. It's also worth taking a look at the inside of the church!

Of course, a mountain biker can and can also visit this church, the means of transport is not relevant!

The first exterior renovation of the Lachner parish church took place in 1876, the first interior renovation was carried out in 1882/83. In 1953/54 the exterior was renovated again. In 1955 the church got a new bell ringing with six bells. From 1967 to 1969 the interior had to be renovated again and the exterior was renovated for the last time in 1985.

The church was built in South German Baroque between 1707 and 1711 according to plans by Peter Thumb as his first work, although the Einsiedel monastery architect, Brother Caspar Moosbrugger, is sometimes incorrectly named.
