Legend and history

Mariaplain, complete complex around 1750 (Franz Anton Danreiter)
→ See naming Plainberg (toponymy)

The miraculous image from an unknown painter survived a fire in a bakery in Regen in Lower Bavaria in 1633 . Argula von Grimming then bought it for her castle chapel. Before 1650, her son Rudolf von Grimming brought it to Müllegg Castle in Salzburg, today's St. Johanns Spital . In 1652 he acquired a property on the Plainberg and brought the miraculous image there, in the same year the first chapel was built. However, a year later he replaced it with a copy by Pereth and brought the original back to Müllegg Castle. In 1658, when the Grimmings moved, the original first came to Nesselwang , then it was set up and venerated on an alpine meadow, on which the Maria Trost pilgrimage site developed.

In 1671 the construction of the pilgrimage church began under Archbishop Max Gandolf von Kuenburg . The southern German Benedictine monasteries, which have been confederated since 1618, have repeatedly contributed to the equipment of the church. On August 12, 1674, the Archbishop consecrated the church and handed it over to the Benedictines, who at that time ran the Salzburg University and who also established the Maria Trost Brotherhood in 1681 . In 1676, Max Gandolf also brought the original of the miraculous image to Maria Plain, which had meanwhile reached Augsburg. As a result, the pilgrimage increased, there were wonderful healings, for example in 1653 and 1692. The first votive pictures also date from 1653. Between 1698 and 1731 the original picture was in the treasury, a copy was exhibited by Zach.

After the secularization of the monastery, the church and property were handed over to St. Peter's Abbey in accordance with the statute of the foundation in 1824 .

Pope Pius XII elevated the basilica to minor basilica in 1952 . In 1974 the basilica and the adjacent monastery building were renovated on the occasion of the 300th anniversary. In 1998 a new organ was built by Georg Westenfelder . In 2003/04 the exterior of the pilgrimage church was renovated, in 2005/06 the Calvary.

Pilgrimage church

Pilgrimage Church of Mariaplain Basilica

The pilgrimage church was built between 1671 and 1674 by Giovanni Antonio Dario . Until 1810 it belonged to the university , from 1824 to the St. Peter monastery . The church is a north-facing, single-nave building. It has side chapels and a standing choir . The nave is covered by a gable roof, the choir has its own, lower gable roof with a lantern attached . The side chapels are lower than the nave and have pent roofs . The choir is adjoined by three or two-storey sacristy extensions to the west and east . In the south is the double-towered, three-story and five-axis facade. Pilasters divide the facade vertically, the horizontal division is made by a wide base and wide cornices between the floors. The second upper storey is formed by the two bell storeys on the side of the towers, which have a bell helmet with a lantern, and the middle gable field. The latter has a double window and a triangular gable. On the towers, the structure is continued on the west and east sides, on the rest of the facade there is no floor division, only a circumferential base.

facade

The south facade has two semicircular niches with the four evangelists (1673) on the ground floor and on the first floor . Viewed from top left to bottom right, they correspond to the arrangement as it can be read for the first time in the prophet Ezekiel : And their faces looked like this: a human face (all four looked forward), a lion face with all four to the right Bull face on all four to the left and an eagle face on all four (to the rear) (Ez 1.10 EU ). In the gable of the central portal is the coat of arms of the builder, Archbishop Max Gandolf von Kuenburg , above this a relief with Mary and the child. The two side portals are also crowned with a triangular gable.

inner space

The nave consists of two whole yokes and one half yoke each in the north and south. The one-bay choir, which has a 3/8 end, connects with a round triumphal arch. Two side chapels adjoin the entire yokes in the west and east, which are located between the towers in the south and the staircases of the sacristies in the north. A groin vault with stucco mirrors covers the nave, choir and side chapels.

The entrances to the tower spiral stairs lead off from the half yoke in the south. Above is a two-storey gallery that runs the full width of the half-yoke. It has three aisles, groin vaults and opens towards the nave with round arches or segmental arches. There are also galleries above the side chapels.

High altar and side altars

View towards the organ gallery

The high altar dates from 1674 and was donated by Archbishop Max Gandolf von Kuenburg. The altarpiece is by Frans de Neve and shows the Assumption of the Virgin. The upper picture shows the Holy Trinity. The side console figures represent the holy Vitalis and Maximilian, those in the essay the holy Rupert and Virgil. They come from the master of the Salvator statue on the cathedral facade .

In front of the altar sheet is the miraculous image of Maria Plain, an image from the early 17th century. It was crowned in 1751. In 1732 the frame from 1679 was given a halo, in 1751 it was provided with rocailles. Below the picture is a silver coat of arms of Archbishop Max Gandolph

The tabernacle dates from the middle of the 18th century.

The two side altars have the same structure. The altar sheet is held by angels, the round picture in the essay by putti. The left side altar was donated in 1674 by Polycarp von Kuenburg , Bishop of Gurk . The altar panel shows the crucifixion of Christ and is inscribed with François von Roethiers 1724 , the circular image shows the Ascension of Christ and dates from the first half of the 18th century. The right side altar was donated in 1673 by Abbot Edmund I. Sinnhuber von St. Peter. The structure and figures come from Thomas Schwanthaler. The altar panel shows the marriage of Mary, the round picture the flight to Egypt. On the cafeterias of both altars there are large reliquary shrines with the two saints Dionysius and Christina. The statuettes on the shrines represent the four church fathers , Gregor and Augustine on the left , Hieronymus and Ambrosius on the right . They were made by Johann Georg Hitzl in 1733.

Side chapels

The first altar was donated by the city of Salzburg in 1676/77. The altar panel shows the Holy Family with God the Father and the Holy Spirit, the round picture in the top shows the Christ Child as the conqueror of the snake and death. The console figures standing on the side represent Saints John the Baptist and John the Evangelist. The cafeteria picture shows Saint Anthony of Padua.

The second altar was donated in 1676 by Abbot Ehrenbert Schreyvogel von Kremsmünster . The altarpiece shows the Holy Family with Saints Benedict and Scholastica. The picture is a copy after a painting in Kremsmünster. The upper picture shows a vision of St. Benedict. The console figures represent Saints Maurus and Placidus. Angels frolic on the entablature. The top of the tower shows the coat of arms of those of Kuenburg and the city of Salzburg. The tabernacle shows the crucifixion in relief.

The third altar is constructed like the second and was donated in 1676 by Abbot Placidus Hieber von Lambach Abbey . The altarpiece shows the holy family, the superior image God the Father. The console figures show saints Kilian and Wolfgang, in the essay, saints Meinrad and Benedikt. The crowning of the top shows the coat of arms of the founder.

The fourth altar is similar in structure to the first. It was donated by Countess Justine Lamberg and completed in 1679. The altar panel shows the fourteen helpers in need , the upper picture shows Maria with her parents. The console figures show Saints Peter and Paul, the cafeteria picture shows Saint Walburga.

Pulpit and other furnishings

The pulpit was donated in 1682 by the Abbot of Garsten, Anselm Angerer. The painting on the pulpit shows the fire in the Regen market, the pilgrimage to Maria Plain, the original chapel and Moses knocking water out of the rock. The coat of arms of Abbot Angerer is attached to the back wall. The staircase shows the three cardinal virtues .

In the central nave, the silver-framed wooden figure of a crowned Mary with baby Jesus in a halo floats on a stylized rosary cord. It is a votive offering from 1675. The following console figures belong to the further furnishings: Immaculata around 1680; Man of Sorrows and Mater Dolorosa, Saints Gertrud von Nivelles and Johannes Nepomuk, all at the beginning of the 18th century; a rosary Madonna around 1674.

In the panels of the two doors to the gallery stairways are popular images of the history of the miraculous image.

Eight pictures by Kremser Schmidt come from around 1765 with the following motifs: hl. Leonhard, consoling prisoners; St. Maurus; St. Benedict with St. Scholastics; the wine miracle of St. Benedict; St. Wolfgang; St. Placidus; Maria and Johannes. The Stations of the Cross are from the second half of the 18th century.

The four confessionals with rocailles carvings and rich inlays come from the Salzburg court carpenter Simon Thaddäus Baldauf (around 1760). The benches have baroque cheeks. Two holy water fonts date from around 1675.

Organs

The first message about an organ in the church of Maria Plain, consecrated in 1674, only says that it was small and had to be built or furnished ( ... finishing the cool organ ... ). The organ instrument, presumably a positive , was installed on the occasion of the inauguration ceremony in 1674. From whom this came from, whether it was perhaps used and what happened to it later, remains unknown.

Main organ, Egedacher 1682

The large organ came from the workshop of Christoph Egedacher (1641–1706), who had been a court organ maker in Salzburg since 1673. It was purchased in 1682 by the abbot of Weingarten's imperial abbey , imperial prelate Alfons I. Stadlmayr (1673–1683), who had been rector of Salzburg University between 1653 and 1673 . Abbot Stadlmayr's father is the well-known composer Johann Stadlmayr .
The original disposition from 1682 has not survived. According to sources from the 19th century, it had 8  registers and was likely to have the following voices: Principal 8 ', Viola 8', Copl 8 ', Octav 4', Flute 4 ', 5th 3', Superoctave 2 ', Mixtur  1 1 ⁄ 2  ′ (double). The manual had a range of C – c '' 'with a short octave (45 keys and tones), the pedal of C – g sharp as well (16 keys, key g sounds g sharp).

Housing modified by Simon Fries, 1749

The case was apparently designed by Simon Fries, who finally made two veil boards, which were paid to him in 1685 and cost 16 florins .
In 1749 , the abbot of Weingarten , Dominikus II. Schnitzer (1745–1784), paid for changes to the center of the case in order to allow more light to penetrate the church interior through the south window. The central upper part of the case together with the Roman dial was removed, and the then modified dial was attached higher; since then it has been 'floating' above the organ on the ceiling of the church.
Three historical information about the organ in the form of (elegiac) chronodistiches are attached to the case in gold letters :

Mooser organ 1850

In 1850, the Salzburg organ builder Ludwig Mooser (1807–1881) redesigned the organ: he provided the case with a cover again, built in new pedal windchests for a separate 18-tone pedal, expanded the scope of the keyboard and changed the layout. From a travel description by Theodor Mann, published in 1885, the organ had 11 registers after the renovation by Mooser. Manual (54 keys C – f 3 ): Principal 8 ′, Viola 8 ′, Gedackt 8 ′, Flute 4 ′, Octave 4 ′, Dolce 4 ′, Octave 2 ′, Fifth  2 2 ⁄ 3  ′, Mixtur (twice). Pedal (18 keys and tones, C-f): sub-bass 16 ′, octave-bass 8 ′; Pedal coupler.

Dreher & Flamm organ 1939

In 1939 this organ was completely changed by the Dreher & Flamm company . It received an electropneumatic action , two electric gaming tables and a remote control set up behind the high altar. The disposition came from Joseph Messner and comprised 22 registers, the instrument was donated by the Archabbot of St. Peter's Monastery, Jakob Reimer (1931–1956). On July 12, 1940, Joseph Messner and Vinzenz Goller examined the organ and wrote a hymnically written report. However, the susceptibility to interference and the poor sound quality of the instrument subsequently led to the consideration of looking for a more dignified instrument. In 1995, the Luxembourg organ builder Georg Westenfelder developed a concept for the reconstruction of the Egedacher organ.

Westenfelder organ 1998

In 1997, the Luxembourg organ builder Georg Westenfelder received the order to build a new organ for Maria Plain. In the run-up to the conception and awarding of the contract, those involved had stated that the best way to reconcile the visual appearance of the organ with the sound is to reconcile it. In the first manual, Westenfelder reconstructed Egedacher's disposition from 1682 in this sense, but expanded it to include the Piffaro floating register , which Egedacher had also dispensed on other organs. In addition, Westenfelder added a second manual and pedal to the organ, with the second manual practically consisting of a cornet décomposé . The new organ was solemnly blessed on September 27, 1998.

Superiorate building

The superior building of the former monastery connects to the choir of the church in the west.

It is an elongated building with three floors; in all of them the corridor is in the north, the suite in the south. It was built around 1675. There is a connecting passage to the church via the first and second floors of the sacristy. The hall in the west of the first floor, the Maximilian-Gandolf-Saal (ballroom) , has a coffered ceiling and a blue tiled stove from the Strobl workshop from the time it was built. The hall and corridor on the second floor have stucco decor , also from the time it was built.

The building serves as a branch of the St. Peter Benedictines as well as a pilgrim care center and a contemplative place for conferences; The newly renovated pilgrim hall on the ground floor and the more magnificent Max Gandolf hall on the 1st floor are available for this purpose.

Chapel of origin

Original chapel Maria Plain

The original chapel is to the east below the pilgrimage church and is now at the parking lot at the inn.

Before that, the first wooden chapel of grace, mentioned in a document in 1652, was located here, in which the miraculous image was exposed for veneration on the initiative of Archbishop Guidobald Thun . In 1710 it was replaced by a permanent chapel.

It is a small, rectangular building with a recessed round apse and a circumferential hollow. It has a crooked roof with an octagonal gable top. The canopy is hipped and sits on four wooden pillars. The name 1710 can be found on the west side.
The chapel has a segmented arch barrel with stitch caps. The painting on the ceiling shows God the Father on clouds with the Holy Spirit, and Rudolf von Grimming as a hermit praying in front of the miraculous image. The painting dates from the second half of the 18th century, possibly by Andrä Langwieder.

The altar contains a copy of the miraculous image of Maria Plain, which was made by Johann Franz Pereth around 1650. The crowns were added in 1751. On the side are putti from the end of the 17th century. The cafeteria antependium shows the image of a hermit kneeling in front of the miraculous image. The hll. Rochus and Sebastian are on the side of the altar as console figures.

The chapel was renovated and re-consecrated in 2009.

Holy Sepulcher Chapel

The burial chapel

The Holy Sepulcher Chapel is located southeast of the pilgrimage church. It is a small, elongated building with no windows facing west. It has a flat gable roof with a hexagonal lantern. Above the portal is the inscription: Erb. 1692 by Karl Franz and Caspar Albert von Lerchenfeld. The interior is a copy of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem. A two-part anteroom leads into the main room with a groin vault. In the north a niche is separated by a grid.

Calvary

The crucifixion group of the Calvary with the view over Salzburg

The Calvary , built 1686–1692, follows the 5 Laws of the Sorrowful Rosary . It consists of a gravel path with stairs in between and four chapels lining the southern slope of the Plainberg, which lead to a covered crucifixion group .

In the barred chapels there are groups of figures depicting the story of Jesus' passion , they date from the late 17th century. The first chapel shows Christ on the Mount of Olives, the second the flagellation of Christ, the third the crowning of thorns and the fourth the carrying of the cross. At the fifth and highest point there is an open crucifixion group, which is protected from the weather by an exedra in the form of a gable roof. The five “secrets” when praying the rosary in front of the station chapels are: Jesus who sweated blood for us - Jesus who was scourged for us - Jesus who was crowned with thorns for us - Jesus who was difficult for us Carried the cross - Jesus who was crucified for us.

The Kalvarienberg was renovated in 2005/06 and inaugurated in 2009.

Chapel of Sorrows

Pietà in the Chapel of Sorrows

The Chapel of Sorrows, built from 1724 to 1734, is a round building with a facade facing the south and side pilasters, a triglyph frieze and a crowning triangular gable with the double coat of arms of Stift Gleink and Abbot Freysauff, the founder of the chapel. In the chapel there is a Pietà by Franz Schwanthaler from 1730.

Old pilgrimage route

Wayside shrine XIV  Admission of Mary to Heaven on Plainberg near Kemating

The old pilgrimage route consists of 15 wayside shrines from 1705, which, however, no longer bear the baroque images. The pictures show the rosary secrets. The route begins at Elisabethstrasse 1 in the Elisabeth-Vorstadt district of Salzburg , but only the last section from the Plainbrücke has been completely preserved in its original course. On the Plain Bridge there is a figure of St. John Nepomuk from 1733. The wayside shrine at the junction between Plainbergweg and Grabenbauernweg contains a renewed Maria Plain picture.

Pilgrimage

Invocations for diseases of all kinds are recorded in two preserved books of miracles. In 1683, Maria Plain was a refuge for a number of Viennese from the Ottoman troops during the Second Siege of Vienna .

During the War of the Austrian Succession (1740–1748), many made pilgrimages to Maria Plain for fear of armed conflicts. When Salzburg was spared the aftermath of the turmoil of the war, the Salzburg Cathedral Chapter arranged for the cult object to be crowned by Andreas Jakob von Dietrichstein . Since then, the coronation of Mary has been celebrated annually on the fifth and sixth Sunday after Pentecost in Plain.

In some areas devotional pictures of Maria Plain were placed under the pillows of children as a remedy against the so-called Fraisen .

Trivia

The persistent claim that Wolfgang Amadé Mozart composed the Coronation Mass KV 317 for the celebrations of the Coronation of Mary , which began on June 27th in 1779, was made by the Mozart enthusiast Johann Evangelist Engl (1835–1921), on whom the foundation of the Mozarteum Foundation and who had the artificial "family grave" of the Mozarts built, invented in 1907.

Source cult

Jacob's well

On the shady side of the Plainberg, on a path with stairs from the direction of Lengfelden , you can reach a Augenbründl , a spring with supposedly medicinal water. This bubbles out of the so-called Jacob's fountain and is said to be particularly effective in treating eye problems. The fountain inscription on it reads: The water that you draw here only quenches thirst for a short time, but which I give you quenches it forever! O Lord! My heart burns with desire, give me such water that the joy of heaven quenches my thirst there for eternity .

Economy and Infrastructure

In addition to the religious buildings, the Maria Plain district of Bergheim also includes gastronomic establishments such as the Maria Plain inn, newly built in 1687, which has been run by the same family since it was founded, and the Plainlinde , which opened in 1914 . The economic activity in Maria Plain today is essentially limited to the gastronomy and the trade in devotional objects and souvenirs.

  • The plain linden tree

  • The binding material

traffic

There is no public transport to the Plainberg. A stop of the Salzburg Local Railway at the western foot of the Plainberg is named after Maria Plain ( Maria Plain - Plainbrücke ). Until it was renamed to Salzburg Kasern , on the opposite side of the mountain there was also a stop for the Western Railway Maria Plain as part of the name. Maria Plain can also be reached on foot via several small streets and paths and on the north side of the mountain via the so-called Plainstiege.

natural reserve

There are two natural monuments in Maria Plain : the group of trees in Maria Plain next to the Plainlinde restaurant ( NDM00158 , since 1978) and the linden tree by the Plainkirche in front of the superior building ( NDM00209 , since 1987). The former is a group of two linden trees and five oaks at the end of the Way of the Cross. The trees, together with the wayside shrine XV ( Coronation of Mary ), the secret pillars and a small pond form a landscape ensemble of particularly high value, and a landmark that can be seen from afar. The protected area covers 0.58  hectares . The second monument is an approximately 100 year old winter linden tree . At the time it was placed under protection, it had a height of 14 meters, a chest height of 1.7 meters and a crown diameter of 13 to 15 meters.

Most of the Plainberg is a landscape protection area , which means that there is an extensive construction ban in Maria Plain as well.
