The Birnau Pilgrimage Church is a Baroque church under the patronage of Mary (Ascension, August 15th, and Visitation, July 2nd) on the northern shore of Lake Constance between the towns of Nussdorf and Uhldingen-Mühlhofen in Baden-Württemberg. The church is located in Birnau on the western route of the Upper Swabian Baroque Road, directly below the B 31 federal highway. It was built between 1746 and 1749 by the Vorarlberg master builder Peter Thumb for the Imperial Abbey of Salem. It features a rich Baroque interior, including frescoes by Gottfried Bernhard Götz, as well as stuccoes, altars, and sculptures by Joseph Anton Feuchtmayer, the most famous of which is the Honey Licker, a putto with a beehive.

Since 1946, the church has also served as the parish church for the towns of Deisendorf and Nussdorf; in 1971, it was elevated to a minor basilica by Pope Paul VI.

The order building in front of the church with its striking bell tower now houses a priory of the Cistercian Abbey of Wettingen-Mehrerau.
