Tips

You should definitely make the 150 meter detour from the granite pilgrimage path here.
There is also a public toilet and a drinking fountain with "holy water"

The Maria Pötsch pilgrimage church is picturesquely situated in the Moistenbach valley. The reason why the farmer Matthias Bichler built it in 1849 – first out of wood, later out of stone – was a spring that had always been believed to have miraculous healing powers. In 1793 a picture of the weeping Mother of God was also found at the site. The name Maria Pötsch also arose from the history of the portrait.

The original depiction of the Mother of God comes from the Hungarian city of Pec and is located in a side altar of St. Stephen's Cathedral in Vienna.

The little church attracts many pilgrims and hikers, especially in the summer months, and is a popular place for weddings.
