St Jakob was first documented in 1300, but it is highly probable that this originally very simple structure was built on the site of a former mountain sanctuary.
St Jakob church as it appears today owes its features to a reconstruction in Gothic style which was undertaken in the early 16th century when the building was fitted with pointed-arch windows and doors. In the simple interior with polygonal chancel, a stonemason's mark with the date 1510 can be seen. During renovation work carried out in 1970 fragments of frescoes dating back to the 17th century were discovered.

I just learned that "the word silhouette is derived from the name of Étienne de Silhouette, a French finance minister who, in 1759, was forced by France's credit crisis during the Seven Years' War to impose severe economic demands upon the French people, particularly the wealthy. Because of de Silhouette's austere economies, his name became synonymous with anything done or made cheaply and so with these outline portraits" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silhouette).
