Flurksapelle and Cemetery/Kirchhof, Ulmet.

The church's tower we see today dates from the year 1091 (it houses two bells, one from 1496, and one from 1743). After reaching a dilapidated state, the church nave was rebuilt in 1261. In 1737 rehabilitation began once again, this time from the foundation up, resulting in the church building seen today, leaving only the tower as original. Other rehabilitations of the church and its famous Stumm organ occurred in 1956, 1965, and 1988-89.
