The parish church of St Martin at Ciardes

The parish church of St Martin is located high up on the Murkegel, before the Sonnenberg of Tschars, and it presumably rises up directly on top of the foundations of its Romanesque predecesor. It is a fourbayed hall church from the first quarter of the 16th cent. with a narrower choir that concludes in a three-sided apse. Its formidable tower with a Baroque onion dome rises up in the south. The interior was renovated in a Baroque style in the third quarter of the 18th cent.

Approach
From the main road, drive up to the village of Tschars. On the left-hand side there is a car park where you can leave your car and walk up the footpath of about 10 minutes to the parish church.
