The patronage "Maria (or in another spelling:) Assumption of Mary" of this cathedral (episcopal church) in Brixen / South Tyrol refers to one of the many memorial or festival days in honor of the Mother of God Mary. It goes back to the festival of her physical assumption into heaven, which the (Catholic) Church celebrates annually on August 15th. In the Orthodox churches the festival is called “Assumption of the Virgin Mary”.
In many rural areas it is customary for bundles of herbs to be collected by the population on this day and blessed during the festival service.
