Mariahilfberg Pilgrimage Church
Highlight • Religious Site
Mariahilfberg has developed into a popular pilgrimage site since 1661 due to an alleged Marian apparition. The monastery has been run by the Servites since 1672. The current building was erected after the previous building burned down in 1724 at the instigation of Count Hoyos (see Hoyos Castle in Gutenstein).
An inn and several stalls selling devotional items complete the complex.

In winter, the ascent from the station to the rest area is cleared. The descent to Gutenstein should not be a problem even in snowy conditions as long as the path is not frozen.
