Description
The church, despite its not particularly large dimensions, has 14 altars, built between 1688 and 1702 by a local carpenter, Mattias Piechlinger. The altarpiece of the high altar, depicting the apparition of the risen Christ to Mother Mary, is by the painter Jacopo Amigoni and dates back to 1715; the altarpiece is flanked by the statues of the founders of the Benedictine Order; St Benedict and St Scholastica.
