    About 6 km west of Admont, on the left bank of the Enns, rises a wooded single mountain, which at its highest point, 130 m above the valley floor, bears the Frauenberg parish and pilgrimage church, which can be seen from afar. The "Kulm-Berg" was owned early on by the Benedictine monastery of Admont, founded in 1074. The beginnings of the Marian pilgrimage lie largely in the dark of history. An old tradition, first recorded in writing in the 17th century, describes how it came about: In the spring of 1404, when the Enns was flooding again, it carried a wooden statue of the Virgin Mary with it, which got caught in the undergrowth at the foot of the Kulm. A light phenomenon the following night, it was the Saturday before the second Sunday after Easter, led to the discovery of the statue. The abbot and the members of the Admont convent carried the statue into the collegiate church, but the next day it was gone and was found again at the foot of the Kulm. This was repeated a second and a third time, so that it was seen as a sign from God. Abbot Hartnid Gleusser von Admont initially built a wooden chapel on the summit of Mount Kulm for the statue of the Virgin Mary, which soon proved to be too small and was therefore replaced by a larger stone church.
