The late Gothic church was first mentioned in a document in 1492 and stands
in the west of the village on a hillside above a healing spring, the water of which
is collected in a barrel vaulted room under the church.
Located at an idyllic spot in Bad Kleinkirchheim, the gothic St. Catherine’s Church was built above thermal springs in 1492. Below you will find the crypt with the original medieval tapping of the spring, which was recently renovated on a private initiative and redesigned as a baptistery.

Especially worth mentioning is the roofed wooden entrance area of the church and the Gothic winged altar with its marvellous carved wooden figures of St. Catherine, St. Barbara and St. Vincent, and the shrine with the crucified Jesus, Mary and John the disciple. The only bell of St. Catherine’s Church was cast in 1496, almost an entire generation before the church was first mentioned in official documents.
