history

The church of Tuntenhausen, incorporated into the Augustinian canons of Beyharting , was mentioned as early as 1226. For the first time for the year 1441 it is covered with a miracle . Due to the increasing flow of pilgrims, it was replaced by a larger hall church in 1470/80, which was expanded to include the twin towers in 1513–1533. After the fires of 1548 and 1584, the church was repaired again.

After the number of pilgrims steadily increased, a new building was built under Elector Maximilian I according to plans by the Munich builder Veit Schmidt, with parts of the previous building and the towers being retained. The building contract was signed on April 11, 1628 by the Beyhartinger provost Johann Gering. The construction management was incumbent on the monastery builder Caspar Pfister. After two years of construction, the new church was consecrated on September 1, 1630.

The pilgrimage declined as a result of the effects of secularization , which was enforced in 1803 by the Bavarian Finance Minister Maximilian von Montgelas . They even called for the church to be demolished and the building materials obtained from it to be reused, but this could be prevented. The pilgrimage was resumed in the 19th century. In 1942 Pope Pius XII raised the pilgrimage church to a minor basilica . Today it is one of the most important pilgrimage churches in Bavaria. The church has a special meaning in the public through the pilgrimages and church services of the catholic men’s association Tuntenhausen , a Christian-conservative group close to the CSU , some with great political influence.

On the north side of the church is the neo-Gothic crypt chapel of the Arco-Zinneberg family on Maxlrain . The Pieta from Carrara marble created Wilhelm Achtermann .

The instrument was of organ building Linder created and on November 24, 2019 Reinhard Marx ordained . It has 24 voices on two manuals and pedal . The case dates from 1749 and originally contained a work by Johann Andreas Fux (* December 4, 1712 in Donauwörth ; † May 4, 1772 ibid), which was greatly changed in 1903 by Josef Hackl and in 1954 by Anton Schwenk and Franz Wappmannsberger, and had thus been destroyed; In order to gain space on the gallery, the case was shortened approx. 42 cm in depth during the intervention in 1953/54, as a result of which the organ lost its stability. When the instrument was renewed, first of all the missing parts of the housing had to be reproduced, connected by carpentry and thus statically restored.
