You can reach the place via the pilgrimage stairs (321 steps) or via the street, parking is available. Once you're up there, you should definitely visit the interior of the church, but the square in front also offers some objects worth seeing.

From here there is a fantastic view of Passau.
The history of the pilgrimage church is also interesting. The numerous panels tell individual stories and “wonderful” coincidences. During the time of my childhood, the 50s and 60s, it was common for many people to "pray" up the stairs on their knees before or after big events to pray or give thanks for a good outcome.
