Maria Bründl Poysdorf

In the heart of the Weinviertel, in the town of Poysdorf, lies the Maria Bründl pilgrimage church. It is a place of silence and prayer that has attracted pilgrims from near and far for centuries. The history of Maria Bründl is closely linked to the region's wine tradition. In the 17th century, a statue of the Virgin Mary was found at this site, hidden in a barrel of wine. This event led to the founding of the pilgrimage church and made Maria Bründl an important spiritual center in the region. Inside the church is an impressive baroque interior created by local artists. The ceiling frescoes depict scenes from the life of Mary and the saints. On the Way of St. James in the Weinviertel region, which passes right by the church, it is worth taking a break here and pausing for a moment in this impressive building.
