The church, built in 1491, quickly developed into a popular pilgrimage church. The church received the nimbus of a place of pilgrimage because of supposed miraculous healings by St. Mauritius and his relics. The miracle myth was reinforced by the Alemannic grave finds uncovered during the construction of the church, as the buried were interpreted as fallen youths of the Theban Legion led by Mauritius. The three keystones of the choir vault also point to the Mauritius legend.

In summer, when the weather is nice, you can take a break at the wine mobile just above the mountain church.
