    The episcopal city of Passau has always been a center of religious life for Bavaria and Austria. In 1611, Prince-Bishop Archduke Leopold of Austria brought a picture of the Blessed Mother to his royal residence with a tenderly embraced child. This was from Lucas Cranach d. Ä., One of the most important German painters, was probably created after 1537.
    "Mariahilf" is an essential part of the particularly flourishing in the Baroque worship of the Mother of God. Hundreds of daughter pilgrimages were created, especially Amberg / Oberpfalz, Innsbruck (there the original painting by Lucas Cranach), Vienna and Munich.

    The complex has no extensive dimensions, no splendid architecture, it is rather a richly structured building complex and makes an excellent use of the mountain location. As a result, Mariahilf becomes an attractive place of pilgrimage, which pilgrims come to as a pilgrimage path. This "Himmelsleiter" leads as a covered stairway from the Passau city to the mountain height. The pilgrims go up the steps and approach the place of grace in a particularly haunting way.
