The origins of the monastery are connected with the completion of the pilgrimage church. It was built in the spirit of the Baroque and, in addition to the Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, it includes the chapel of the Holy Steps with ambits, a spring, a cemetery and a pilgrimage house.
The original Redemptorist order was replaced by the Servites. During the time of totalitarianism, an internment camp for monks was located here. This unfortunate past is remembered by the main exhibition of the Memorial to the Victims of Internment. In the showcases you will see the equipment and weapons of the guards and some rare personal items and parts of the relics of the monks. There is also a tour of the interior of the command house and watchtower.
Monastery church built in 1695-1700. In August 1846, lightning struck the church and it burned down. After the fire, it was equipped with valuable pseudo-Renaissance furniture from 1883-1907. Statues and altars are carved from limbo wood.
Since July 1, 2018, the pilgrimage area of the Mount of Our Lady with the Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary is a national cultural monument.
