On the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the mayor, the then mayor of the municipality of Wolfsgraben, Josef Mitterstöger, provided a building site for the church. Construction began next to the old chapel, but the building material was only sufficient for the foundation and walls one meter high. When Mayor Josef Mitterstöger died in 1899, the temporary end of church building was sealed
