Pilgrimage and parish church to the Holy Trinity

history

The church, built in 1653, is located on an old holy place, on which a torture column, three burial mounds and two linden trees already stood in the 16th century. From 1643 to 1645 a small chapel was built there and an old image of the Virgin was erected. After the discovery of a healing spring, Weihenlinden developed into a pilgrimage that came to Weyarn Abbey in 1650 . Three years later, Provost Valentin built a large church over the older octagonal chapel, which was consecrated in 1657.

Building

On both long sides, the three-aisled gallery basilica has walkways with frescoes on the history of the Weihenlinden pilgrimage and a slip pilgrimage . In the east nave yoke, behind the high altar, is the old Chapel of Grace from 1644/45; it is a space within the church. Its rococo stucco from 1761 comes from Johann Martin Pichler from Erding.
