Pilgrimage church Maria Schnee

Parish Church of St. Bartholomew and Dionysius

Maria Schnee pilgrimage church in Aufhausen, built in 1736 by master builder Johann Michael Fischer . Since 1672 there has been a small church with a statue of the Virgin, which the then cathedral vicar Johann Georg Seidenbusch brought from Munich . Until 1827 there was also a college of oratorians founded by him. The altarpiece of the Madonna comes from the Dürer School . The name Maria Schnee goes back to a legend about a Roman patrician, whom Maria instructed in a vision to build a church on the site that he would find covered with snow. In the middle of summer he saw a snow-covered hill.
