The parish church of St. Nicholas stands imposingly on a hill in the village Obernberg am Brenner in Tyrol. Due to its impressive location, it is one of the most photographed churches in Tyrol. The church originally dates from the 14th century.
In the 18th century there was a new construction, which is responsible for the current late Baroque church with a high tower. Documents indicate that the original church in the 14th century was a small chapel.
The church can be easily visited, there is a car park just a five minute walk away. If you want to combine an impressive hike with a visit to the church, you should then continue a few kilometers to the Obernberger See.
