Pfarrkirche hl. Daniel
Facts and practical information
The parish church of St. Daniel im Gailtal in the municipality of Dellach, Carinthia, Austria is considered the original parish of the upper Gailtal and the Lesachtal.
According to an inscription, the church was built in 1054, but based on excavations, it is believed that the first church was built about 250 years earlier as a proprietary church of the Patriarch of Aquileia. In 1478 the Turks destroyed the church.
Until 1751, the parish of St. Daniel belonged to the Patriarchate of Aquileia, then briefly to the Archbishopric of Gorizia and finally, from 1786, to the Diocese of Gurk.
