In the new community center of the village, which was completed in 1986, there is an approximately 300-year-old Montafoner Stube - the so-called Lucas Tschofen Stube.
The parish church of Gaschurn as a neo-Romanesque church was consecrated in 1869 by Bishop Franz Josef Rudigier of Linz, who was born in Partenen. The altar and ceiling paintings were executed by the Schruns brothers Franz and Jakob Bertle in the late Nazarene style.

The chapel is located on a small hill in the village center of Gaschurn.
