📷 March 31, 2018 - The church was first mentioned in documents in 1170 and over time has served as a place of worship for both Catholics and Protestants. The church tower houses a bell that is dated 1452. It is also noteworthy that there was once a town around the church. However, this place was most likely completely destroyed in a once-in-a-century storm or in the religious wars of the 16th century. But there is also a traditional “saga” that explains the disappearance of the town of Heiligenberg. 😊👍👍👍

The pilgrimage church stands on the Heiligenberg north of Hautzendorf in Kreuttal on a wooded pointed hill. One of the oldest churches in Lower Austria, first documented in 1178.
The current building dates from the end of the 17th century, the tower still from the Gothic.
Very steep but short climb.
