Diese Barockkirche liegt sehr romantisch am Zusammenfluss von Enns und Steyr. Das Innere der Kirche stammt aus dem Frühbarock.

Am Ende der Steyr-Brücke erhebt sich der zweitürmige Barockbau der Michaeler-Kirche (1635-1677). Der Giebel zwischen den Türmen zeigt ein Fresko des hl. Michael mit dem Sturz der gefallenen Engel. Die reiche Rokokoeinrichtung ist sehenswert. Am Altarbild sieht man den Erzengel Michael als Sieger über Luzifer.

The pediment in between the two steeples shows a fresco depicting Saint Michael and the fall of the evil angels. The most noticeable architectural feature of the Church is the lavishly decorated interior in Rococo style. The altarpiece depicts Archangel Saint Michael triumphing over Lucifer.
