    From 1698 to 1828 Schönbach was a Hieronimitan monastery
    Translated by
    Schönbach was first documented as a market town in 1351 and had belonged to the Rappottenstein domain since the 14th century. Pilgrimages to "Our Lady Maria Rast" were already mentioned in 1421.
    Construction of the present church began in 1450; the previous one had become too small. The church was consecrated in 1457.
    From 1698 to 1828, Schönbach was a Hieronymite monastery.
    In 1700, Schönbach became an independent parish.
    The monastery and church were severely damaged in the village fire of 1849. Valuable archival material was lost.
