The Mariahilfkirche is a relatively new building. It is the successor to the earlier Mariahilfkapelle, which was consecrated as early as the Thirty Years' War.
For whatever reason, King Ludwig I did not have the church planned and built in the classical or classicist style, but commissioned a church "in the style of German Gothic". It was ahead of its time, when it was consecrated in 1839 it was the first neo-Gothic church in Germany.
You can't see that anymore, however, because the church burned down completely after an air raid in World War II - except for one tower.

The Catholic parish church of Maria Hilf in der Au, called Mariahilfkirche, is the main parish church of the Au. It was started between 1831 and 1839 by Joseph Daniel Ohlmüller and completed by Georg Friedrich Ziebland. The landmark of the Au is considered an archetype of neo-Gothic church building from the 19th century. It is one of Munich's three "neo-Gothic siblings", the Holy Cross Church and St. Johann Baptist, all three of which have a similar monumental brick building style and are located east of the Isar.
