The parish and pilgrimage church of Maria Ellend, officially "Our Lady of the Rosary," belongs to the Hainburg deanery of the Archdiocese of Vienna and is one of the most important pilgrimage sites in the region. The first records of a Marian chapel on this site date back to 1466, when the chapel "Our Lady of Ellend" was first mentioned. The original church was destroyed in 1529 during the Turkish Wars. On the same site, the newly settled Croatian community built a second church in 1584, which was initially dedicated to Saint Mark and elevated to parish church status in 1659. After further war damage, the building fell into disrepair by 1710. The present church was rebuilt between 1770 and 1772 on what was then the imperial road and dedicated to Our Lady of the Rosary. In 1910, a mosaic depicting the "Madonna of the Road" was added to the facade, and a Lourdes grotto, Stations of the Cross, and a Rosary path were created in the surrounding area, reinforcing the pilgrimage character of the site. Architecturally, the church presents a simple exterior with a hipped roof and rectangular windows. The interior is dominated by a high altar dating from around 1770, upon which stands a miraculous statue of Mary with Child from around 1600, complemented by a simple wooden pulpit from the same period. Since 1929, the parish and pilgrimage site have been under the care of the Missionary Congregation of the Holy Family, ensuring that the church tradition, the pilgrimage activities, and the veneration of the Virgin Mary remain vibrant to this day.

The Danube near Hainburg is a particularly scenic stretch for cyclists on the Danube Cycle Path. Between the Hainburg Hills and the Danube floodplains, the cycle path runs mostly flat and well-maintained directly along the riverbank. The route offers sweeping views over the Danube, shady passages through riparian forests, and frequent access to the water – ideal for short breaks or a refreshing dip in the summer. Hainburg itself, with its historic old town, city walls, and the view from Braunsberg, is an inviting place for a short detour. The combination of nature, culture, and excellent infrastructure makes the region around Hainburg a popular and relaxing destination for cycling tours along the Danube.
