Description

Die Wallfahrtskirche Maria Laach gehört zu den wenigen Kunstwerken des Landes, deren mittelalterliche Ausstattung sich fast unvermindert erhalten hat.

Maria Laach is a pilgrimage church and an example of medieval architecture in Austria.
The Maria Laach Parish Church is on the south slope of Jauerling at an elevation of 644 m above sea level.

It is one of the few pieces of architecture in Austria to have retained almost all its medieval features.
The church has numerous art treasures such as a Gothic double winged altarpiece, the devotional image known as "Mary with Six Fingers" and the Renaissance tomb of the Kueffsteins.
