From the forecourt of the church you have a magnificent view over the Upper Filstal.

It's a fair climb to the pilgrimage church, but you'll be rewarded with a beautiful view.

The baroque church has an eventful history.

It's definitely worth taking a look inside.

If weddings aren't taking place, you can - if you want - find a little peace and reflection there.

The pilgrimage church and the Capuchin monastery Ave Maria (also Ave Maria (Tugstein)) are located in the Upper Filstal in the Deggingen district in the Göppingen district. The late baroque complex is a bit off the federal highway 466 and can be easily reached from Geislingen an der Steige and Wiesensteig. The pilgrimage church and the Capuchin monastery belong to the parish of St. Cross in Deggingen. Four other Capuchin friars work together with a priest in pastoral care in the pilgrimage church and in the vicinity of the monastery.

The pilgrimage church was built between 1716 and 1718. Two centuries later, in 1929, the pastoral work was entrusted to the Capuchins, and three years later the monastery was built.

The furnishings of Ave Maria show rich stucco ornamentation and artistic paintings. In the center is the high altar, which is the showpiece of Ave Maria. He is surrounded by cheering angels and holds the image of grace in the middle. This late Gothic Madonna is the work of an unknown artist from the 15th century.

The pilgrimage church of Ave Maria is used by many bridal couples to celebrate their church wedding.
