The Murschrott Chapel, built in 1948, marks the origin of today's “Pilgrimage to Our Lady of Tirschenreuth”. The first miraculous healing is said to have occurred here in 1692. The next known healing followed in 1714 and the third in 1717, which is considered to be the trigger for national pilgrimages, even long-distance pilgrimages, in the deeply religious Baroque era.
According to tradition, the shoemaker Johann Zottenmeyer was cured of a “bad fever” in 1692. Likewise his mother and sister. Out of gratitude, he hung the image of the Mother of God “on a linden tree near a well outside the city.”
The chapel got its name from the previous owner of the tree and the spring, the citizen and potter Maurus (abbreviated: Mur) Schrott.
