Hilariberg Monastery
The monastery Hilariberg stands in a forest on a small hill in the northwest of the town of Kramsach in the district of Kufstein in Tyrol .
In 1689 a Carmelite named Hilari (also: Hilerian or Hilarion) founded a hermitage with the Maria auf dem Karmel chapel on what is now known as the Hilaribergl . It is actually a pilgrimage church, was changed in 1746 and rebuilt in 1910. The patronage festival is celebrated on July 16, at the Scapular Festival . In 1913 the Camillian Order took over the building. From 1971 to 2010 Dominicans were in the monastery, at that time it was part of the Austrian Union of Dominicans . The chapel is part of a building complex with a monastery attached to the south and west.
The chapel is a simple building with a vestibule, a two-bay nave under a barrel vault with stitch caps, and a strongly recessed single-bay choir under a cross vault and a semicircular cone at the end. The chapel has arched portals to the north and south and arched windows in the wall.
The newly assembled high altar shows the miraculous image of Mount Carmel, the archetype is in the church of Santa Maria della Bruna in Naples, and bears the figures of St. Joachim and Anna , furthermore the console statues Stephanus and Laurentius . The carved figure Our Lord in Misery is from the 17th century. The painter Wolfram Köberl painted two pictures of the saints Kamillus and Notburga in 1950 .
