The Roman Catholic Church of St. Johann im Pongau is located in the city of St. Johann at an altitude of 616 meters above sea level. The church was mentioned for the first time in a document of the year 924, and it can be assumed that there was a wooden or stone church with a tower at that time, and in 1855 AD, a great fire caused the destruction of the entire market, including the church. In 1857, the construction of the neo-Gothic church, consisting of three aisles, with a very large tower, began and became one of the most important architectural monuments in the city.
