Tips
This imposing pilgrimage church, which was built between 1663 and 1670 according to the plans of the Bregenz architect Michael Kuen, towers 650 meters above the Rhine Valley south of Bregenz. In 1838 the 2 towers were added. In the conches of the nave, the 14 Stations of the Cross are depicted in the form of small Baroque altars. An extraordinarily beautiful tour can be started from here. The parking spaces above the school and the church are free of charge.
