About the origin of the pilgrimage the following is told:
The origin of the name Mausberg is the same as the village ten minutes away. We find the Mausberg documentary already in 1391, which is donated by the Hochstift Regensburg Amberger citizen Georg Kastner with all the rights from the vineyards to Amberg, Mausberg bei Gebenbach and Burgfeld on Lebtag. The year 1700 is written. The 56-year-old from the town of Gebenbach, Sebastian Grün, rides home in the evening, probably from his branch in Poppenricht. At the Mausberg, where the church stands today, but at that time is "a small woman in a stone rock", the old gentleman crashes, but after receiving the Blessed Mother "remains untouched by Mariae Vorbitt". To thank you for the wonderful help, Pastor Grün has a little chapel cut out and vaulted into the rock on which the picture hung. In it he sets up a wooden picture of the Sorrowful Mother.

The pilgrimage church Mausberg always invites you to linger - no matter what the season and whether you walk or bike over.

The Mausbergfest, which always takes place in the week of the 8th of September (Feast of the Nativity), is always worth a visit. Due to the increasing awareness, however, it is just overcrowded on nice days and has lost some of its original cosiness.
