Mary Help of Christians (Latin: Auxilium Christianorum) is one of the Marian titles given to Holy Mary in the Roman Catholic Church and which appear in the Litany of Loreto.

In this chapel, the Mother of God is invoked under the title "Mary, Help of Christians" (Latin: "Sancta Maria, auxilium christianorum"). In the course of church history, but above all in popular piety, countless titles have been found for Mary with which believers have addressed her; see, for example, the so-called "Litany of Loreto".
The builders of the small but pretty church certainly wanted to give visible expression to the request for the Mother of God's intercession for the country - and above all for the people living there - with this invocation.
