Towards the end of the Second World War, the Chapel of St. Mary was completely destroyed by Russian soldiers, but on May 13, 1945, 300 believers made a pilgrimage to the hastily repaired shrine. The ceremonial re-consecration took place that same summer. After a general renovation in 1990, the chapel was opened on April 22. The water from the spring was examined and analyzed between 1956 and 1966. It is identical to the water that flows from the nearby well of the water supply association. Since the water in the shaft of the chapel dried up in 1970, the water has come from the association's pumping stations. Source: www.leobersdorf.at/Der_Heilsame_Brunnen

South of Leobersdorf, on the road to Sollenau, is the Healing Well, a regionally important place of pilgrimage. The spring, which is said to relieve eye diseases and, according to legend, has healed the blind, has a varied history. The spring was first mentioned in 1466 as the "Heylige Prunn" in the Enzesfeld Urbarium of Christoph von Spaur, and remains of settlements from the Bronze Age also indicate a deserted place called Pölla, which was located in the vicinity of the well. However, the spring must have been buried, because its documented source after a storm, during which, according to witnesses, the earth is said to have shaken, is dated April 23, 1626. The spring was initially known for its alleged healing effects; even those who were doomed to die are said to have recovered. It was mainly people with eye problems who came to visit it. A blind woman had regained her sight and the son of Peter von Braun (1758-1819), the owner of the estate of Schönau an der Triesting, was cured of a serious eye disease. The spring's emergence helped the community of Leobersdorf to gain the right to hold a weekly market from Emperor Ferdinand II. A wooden chapel with a bell was then built over the spring using the proceeds from the offerings. This was destroyed in 1683 during the Second Turkish Siege of Vienna. It was restored, torn down during a storm in 1733 and rebuilt. Rebuilt again from wood in 1738, the chapel fell victim to a fire in which only the image of the Virgin Mary remained intact. In 1780, the Traiskirchen district office prohibited the people of Leobersdorf from replacing the little church with a brick building and it did not take on its current form until 1850, when the community had it built as a half-timbered building with the support of the local councillor Josef Hobodides. However, it remained without a mass license. Eventually, sales huts were grouped around the building. The Healing Fountain became the destination of annual supplication processions on St. Florian's Day (May 4). On Sunday, May 30, 1926, around 1,000 believers celebrated its 300th anniversary after the church had been renovated by the Leobersdorf community to mark the anniversary.

Beautiful long avenue with many old linden trees.

Beautiful memorial stone with rest area

The place is well hidden behind the Tran Austria Gasnetze compression station Only a small plaque in the middle of a field points to the natural monument.

The square is being rebuilt according to the plan - theoretically the construction work should be completed.

08/08/2023 - The ruin has something special, the chapel has already been renovated - maybe something will happen again soon.
