Dorfgastein’s beautiful Pfarrkirche of the Holy Rupert und Virgil, with its white steeple which dominates the town, is an early Gothic building dating from the year 1350 but was subsequently partially remodelled the Baroque style. In recent times, the old church has been sympathetically and carefully restored, incorporating both the most ancient and modern features, for example, the ancient high alter was painstakingly reconstructed from its original parts. The church is the focus of the annual Dorfgastein harvest festival.
