Detail InformationEdit

In the year 1493, a “godless man” stole the Ciborium with the Host from Church in the neighboring village of Auerbach.
He hid the blessed items under a beech tree on the very site of today´s high altar. A local farmer discovered the stolen goods upon plowing his field and called the priest of Pischelsdorf. The valuable discovery was then taken to the Parish Church by representatives of the government at Burghausen and the Bishop of Passau. The thief was caught on Siedelberg mountain and burnt at the stake. The very site of the finding soon became a center for pilgrims. Thus a wooden Chapel with an offertory box were erected on its location. The story of the Pilgrimage Church´s foundation is depicted on eight paintings behind the altar and on murals on the North wall of the Church.
In 1515 the Church was erected on the site of the wooden chapel, using tufa and conglomerates from the early Medieval Castle in ruins on the nearby hill. The Baroque interior is mainly from the 17th century and comprises precious art items, such as the heavy wrought-iron bars from the Parish Church of Burghausen, the confessional boxes of 1640, the original 1646 pews and the large crucifix.
The organ was installed in 1626. In 1684, the 47 meter tall tower was ,restored´ in Baroque style. Only few of the original votive tables have survived. Today´s high altar and sanctuary date from 1716.
