Innsbruck is the capital city of the federal state of Tyrol in western Austria. It is located in the Inn Valley at the junction with the Wipptal (Sill River), which provides access to the Brenner Pass, some 30 km (18.6 mi) south of Innsbruck. It's certainly a lovely place to be in. We had the entire afternoon to explore. We saw 3 churches and I have to admit they are certainly more beautiful than the ones I saw in Italy.

The church was built from 1700 to plans by Johann Martin Gumpp the Elder constructed to replace an earlier building Gothic. The two portals are intricately carved doors, the interior is dominated by rich stucco. The frescoes were repainted after air raids of World War II. In the high altar of a Gothic crucifix from 1705 (in 1500) is integrated.
