Kirchberg in Tirol is located at an altitude of 837 meters above sea level. It was settled in the Bronze Age. Originally exclusively Illyrians lived here. But the Bavarians began to come to their lands about fourteen centuries ago. They partially destroyed and assimilated the local population. Historical Chronicles indicate that the settlement first came into the Church papers in the distant 902. It was donated to the Bishopric of Regensburg at this time. The land changed the owner almost five centuries later. It went to Friderich Von Chiemsee as part of the pledge.

Today the Church of St. Ulrich is 32 meters long, 12 meters high, and 11 meters wide. Despite its compactness, the structure is quite monumental, largely due to the strong influence of Gothic trends in the architecture of the past. The interior of the Church was modified in accordance with the prevailing Baroque fashion in the 18th century. Kassian Singer was engaged in the reconstruction of the interior. He decided to place a Baroque pulpit in the Western part of the Church. Today there are three altars in the Church. If you want, you can also visit the forty-meter bell tower. The image of the mother of God and child is on the North wall of the building.
