Mariahilfkirche
Mariahilfkirche is the name given to churches and chapels that are consecrated to Saint Mary, mother of Jesus, in her role as helper. They include:
- Churches that derive their patronage from the Marian title Mary, Help of Christians . This is an invocation in the Lauretanian litany , which has been prayed since around 1500, and reads in Latin "Auxilium Christianorum" - "You helper of Christians". In Central Europe there is also an influence on the naming of these churches from the miraculous image Mariahilf of Lucas Cranach III. (around 1520) possible, which is often copied in churches.
- Churches that refer to the image of Our Lady of Perpetual Help (see Our Lady of Perpetual Help and Church of Our Lady ).
- Churches Relating to the Invocation of Good Mother of Perpetual Help .
These churches generally have their patronage at the protective mantle festival ( Auxilium , May 24th). They are particularly widespread today in the Salesian family (Don Bosco communities).
A similar dedication is to the Protection and Intercession of the Virgin Mary (Orthodox, October 1st / July 14th) (see Church of the Protection of the Virgin Mary )
