The carved, painted, and gilded ceiling relief was probably made in the second half of the 17th century in the workshop of the sculptor Vinazer for the ceiling of St. Jakob's Church. It depicts God the Father with his right hand raised in blessing and his left hand resting on the orb and cross, set against a blue starry sky. He is surrounded by a wreath of clouds and four winged angels. 

The church dedicated to Saint Christina was first mentioned in 1342, and its foundation was in Freising. The fraternity altar from the early 18th century was created by the Vinazer brothers, and the baroque high altar is by the sculptor Trebinger. The current panel painting from 1848 originates from Johann Burgauner of Castelrotto, while the Last Supper relief on the northern choir wall (1855) is from the Val Gardena sculptor Peter Nocker.

Saint Jacob's church is assumed to be the oldest church in the valley and is thought to have been built by the lords of Stetteneck around 1200. It was first mentioned in records in 1246. The dedication of the church to Saint Jacob, guardian of travellers, is due to the fact that it lies on Troi Paian trade route. The church is equipped with local baroque sculptures, with the originals being stored in the museum.

This site is part of the tour "San Giacomo and its over-500-year-old farms".

The farmhouse on the border between Ortisei and Santa Cristina is divided in the direction of the roof ridge. The cellar has been there since the 15th/16th century, the farm since the 13th century. This is where the family of Christian Trebinger, the first baroque sculptor from Val Gardena, and, after 1651, Melchior Vinazer, who founded the Vinazer dynasty of sculptors and ran a prominent workshop for sacred art, lived. The house was renovated in 1992.
