St. Vitus Parish Church, Kufstein
Highlight • Religious Site
The Gothic construction of the St. Vitus Church was completed by 1420 at the latest and was the successor to an existing church. It is a three-aisled hall church with a polygonal choir closure.
In the years 1660 to 1661 it was baroque in order to adapt it to the taste of the time. These changes are still visible today: the facade, the tower end, the onion helmet and the exterior design and color scheme no longer have anything in common with the Gothic appearance of the church. The emphasis on the center of the facade with a risalit and the subdivision by means of color-contrasting pilasters and pilaster strips is characteristic of the early, still relatively austere Baroque.
In 1840 the church was enlarged by one yoke. On this occasion, the baroque furniture was exchanged for a classicist one. In 1929 the vaulted sections of the central nave and the vault of the gallery were painted a secco by the painter Rudolf Stolz (1874–1960). Extensive restorations took place in 1959 and 1991.
