The parish church in Seefeld defines our pedestrian zone like no other building. Since its first documented mention over 700 years ago (1320), the late Gothic stepped church has been a central point in the history of the plateau.

Dedicated to Saint Oswald, it was long one of the most famous pilgrimage churches in existence. The reason for this was the so-called “Miracle of the Host” from 1384. According to legend, Oswald Milser from the border fortress Schlossberg requested a larger host (blessed wafer) at the Holy Mass than the other churchgoers.

Willingly handed over by the priest, the host turned blood-red, and the stone on which he knelt, as well as the heavy altar stone, sank abruptly into the ground. The imprint of the hand, which desperately tried to hold on to the stone slab of the altar, is still clearly visible today.
This miracle attracted large streams of pilgrims. The Tyrolean princes were also greatly impressed. As the small church was no longer sufficient, Friedrich with an empty purse in 1432 began the construction of the current Gothic church, which dragged on for a long time and was continued by Friedrich's son, Sigismund the Mint Master. The church was not completed
