Ölberg Chapel Sachrang

Hike starting in Sachrang, past the Ölberg chapel, through forest and meadow paths.

The Mount of Olives chapel at Sachrang is a really tranquil place to rest and pause. The small pilgrimage church was built into the slope and consists of four rooms. The oldest part of the Mount of Olives chapel is the barrel-vaulted middle chapel with the grotto on the altar from 1674.

Onion dome, 4 rooms: choir part, HL grave chapel with 12 apostles, sermon pulpit. The Oil Mountain Pilgrimage has been taking place with interruptions since the second half of the 17th century. It was brought into being by the property ranger curate Johann Nunzinger (1659 - 1668). In 1828, the property ranger, Müllner Peter, saved the chapel from deterioration. Since 1972, the Bavarian - Tyrolean pilgrimage has been taking place on the 3rd Sunday in September with an outdoor festival service. The Ölberg Chapel is located in the middle of the forest and is also seen as a place of power.
