Attraction Pfarrkirche Mayrhofen

Description

Already in the 14th century, perhaps even earlier, there was a small church in Mayrhofen. In any case, it is known that at the end of the 14th century a fire destroyed the little church. Auxiliary priests came from the parish of Zell on Sundays and holidays to hold the services there. The name “Maierhof” first appears in the documents in 1309. The oldest parishes in the Zillertal are Zell and Fügen, since Boniface (c. 740) the Ziller is the border between the Archdiocese of Salzburg and the Diocese of Brixen (today the Diocese of Innsbruck).
