    The miraculous image venerated in the Buschhoven pilgrimage church, a statue of the Mother of God with child from the year 1190, was once venerated in the Schillingskapellen monastery, founded by the knight Wilhelm Schilling, Lord of Bornheim. After the closure of the Premonstratensian convent (as was so often the case in the Rhineland under French times), the statue of the Mother of God, which is revered as "Rosa Mystica" ("Mysterious Rose"), ended up after a few detours in Buschhoven, a district of Swisttal. The "Rose Festival" is celebrated in Buschhoven on the Sunday before the memorial day of John the Baptist (June 24).
