Lienz - Parish Church of St Andrä

On higher ground on the north bank of the Isel in Lienz stands the parish church of St Andrä, the finest Gothic building in East Tirol (consecrated in 1457); the choir was altered in the 18th C. By the organ loft lie the tombstones, both of red Adnet marble, of burgraves belonging to the Görz-Tirol and Wolkenstein families. The beautiful organ loft dates from 1616. The winged altars were the work of Friedrich Pacher (end of 15th C.) and the wooden crucifix in the right side altar dates from 1500.
