Mountaineering

The 19th-century neo-Gothic nave was demolished in 1988 and replaced by a modern, octagonal structure. However, the beautiful chancel, dating from 1670, with the miraculous image by Lucas Cranach on the main altar, remains. As early as 1503, Wilhelm von Wolkenstein had a chapel dedicated to Mary Help of Christians built here, which was later enlarged several times, as many pilgrims made and still make pilgrimages to this cherished place of pilgrimage. On the outer wall of the sacristy, you can see a granite Wolkenstein coat of arms.
