    The pilgrimage chapel "Maria Heimsuchung" stands slightly above the Kobingerhütte. In the anteroom of the chapel countless souvenir pictures of the deceased are.

        The patronage of this chapel, "Visitation of Mary (or in another spelling: Visitation of Mary), refers to one of the many memorial days or feast days in honor of the Mother of God Mary. The term "Visitation" - which has negative connotations in our modern expression and way of thinking - refers in the Bible to Mary's visit to her relative Elizabeth.
        She is married to Zacharias and the marriage remained childless, which was a social stigma at the time. But now - despite her advanced age - she still became pregnant, which the Archangel Gabriel told Mary when he brought her the message that she herself would give birth to the Son of God, Jesus.
        The son of Elizabeth and Zacharias is John, nicknamed "the Baptist", who is considered the forerunner/pioneer of Jesus Christ.
