On a pilgrimage to (Nieder)Schönenfeld in 1691, 15-year-old Wilhelm Gastl became a particular admirer of the Mother of God. He therefore glued a devotional image of the Mother of God of Ettal onto a wooden board and attached it to a stately oak tree on the footpath from Aichach to the pilgrimage church of St. Leonhard in Inchenhofen in the spring of 1692. This image was venerated by many pilgrims and other people who passed by. A small wooden roof and a kneeler were soon erected in front of the image. Then Georg Planck, a farmer from Froschham, built a small wooden hut around the oak tree, where Wilhelm Gastl lived like a hermit. In 1696, construction of a brick chapel began. The delicate stucco was made by Matthias Lotter from Sirchenried in 1723. After a woman from Höchstädt was healed in 1699, pilgrims came from far and wide to the oak chapel. There are 271 Maria Eich. Records from 1698 to 1713 in several miracle books. The flourishing pilgrimage was abruptly interrupted as a result of secularization. However, a farmer from Oberbernbach bought the chapel and saved it from demolition. Today Maria Aich is once again enjoying great popularity. May devotions are celebrated in May. Once a year a supplication procession takes place from Oberbernbach to the chapel.
