The war memorial for those killed in the world wars was erected around 1928 on the north side of the Chapel Square. The sculptor Franz Hoser created a canopy resting on three pillars in the neo-baroque style. Below it is a Pietà.
The Pietà, also known as the Vesperbild or Marian Lamentation, is the visual arts depiction of Mary as Mater Dolorosa (Our Lady of Sorrows) with the body of Jesus Christ taken down from the cross.
The war memorial is entered in the list of monuments.

Kapellplatz, Altötting

Highlight • Religious Site

Central starting point for pilgrimages. If you've been there yourself, like I did ten years ago from Regensburg, it's really impressive when all the believers gather here in the center of the pilgrimage.

Chapel of Grace, Altötting

Highlight • Religious Site

Pope Benedict XVI. called the pilgrimage Altötting once the "heart of Bavaria and one of the heart of Europe". No wonder, because the cityscape is characterized by numerous churches and chapels. Great sights and a little journey through the history of the place. A must - if you cycle through Altötting - is a visit to the Gnadenkapelle in the middle of the Kapellplatz - it is the destination of all pilgrims.
