The history of the Schnifis church is shaped by significant historical events and restorations. The parish church was redesigned in 1972/73 according to plans by the Feldkirch architect Hugo Purtscher. Notable elements include the wooden busts of Joseph, Jesus, Mary, and Mary Magdalene, the large rectangular windows in the vestibule, and the view of the mountains. The church also houses a Gothic baptismal font and four silver-plated wooden busts from the 18th century.
