Church festivals are an integral part of social life. **Pilgrimage to: Mary, Help of Christians (Maria Schmolln**) Take a break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, don't rush from one place to the next, consciously take a few hours to linger. Finding peace in the quiet of the church, being entertained in a convivial atmosphere - this is good for body and soul alike. Parish pilgrimages, senior citizens, KFB, school classes or clubs with or without a priest are very welcome. Please book in advance. **Pilgrimage leads to the centre and gives the soul space to breathe.** As much as we appreciate the good aspects of our prosperity, we realise that it alone cannot satisfy our longing for the meaning of life.

No one walks the path alone, we are part of a greater whole, part of a story that has a good destination. Pilgrim rooms are available. The pilgrimage church itself was built between 1860 and 1863.
