Mary, Help of Christians Church
The small branch church Maria Hilf is located slightly elevated above the valley floor in the area of the Grünwald.
A chapel built in 1665 was replaced by a stone building by 1681, to which a hermitage was appended. In 1716, the church was expanded to its present size.
The dissolution of all hermitages ordered by Emperor Joseph II in 1782 led to the church and hermitage being sold into private hands. After the liturgical use had been resumed since 1823, the properties were returned to the parish in 1861.
The interior of the church presents a Baroque appearance. The corresponding decoration was done by Christoph Anton Mayr in 1768. However, some of it was lost due to war damage in 1945, which is why Alfred Hochschwarzer and Josef Ghezzi provided a stylistically appropriate replacement in 1958 and 1981/82, respectively. The high altar, possibly created by Jakob Mayr, contains a Pietà with the corresponding accompanying figures.
