The church, built in 1662-1665, is a simple rectangular hall with a porch, a choir closed on three sides and a hexagonal choir tower with an onion dome. Above the portal is a fresco from 1743 depicting the legend of origin, which is attributed to Johann Michael Strickner. The three-bay nave has wall pillars and a richly stuccoed lunette barrel. The ceiling frescoes were created in 1945 by Hans Andre. On the baroque high altar is the miraculous image, a late Gothic Madonna and Child from the first half of the 15th century, which was stolen in 1971 and replaced with a copy. In the side chapel there is a marble altar, which was donated in 1667 for the Annenkapelle of the Wilten Collegiate Church and has an altarpiece with St. Ottilie from the 18th century.

Next to the main entrance in the west is the fountain built in 1736. To the east of the church is the pilgrimage inn, which was built under Abbot Martin Stickler (1719-1747) as a sexton's house and was expanded to its current size in the 1920s.
