This small town is famous for the Gnadenkapelle (Chapel of the Miraculous Image), of one of the most visited shrines in Germany. This is a tiny octagonal chapel which keeps a venerated statue of the Virgin Mary. According to the legend, in 1489, a 3-year-old local child who had drowned in the river was revived when her grieving mother placed her in front of a wooden statue of the Virgin Mary at the high altar. News of the miracle quickly spread, and the chapel was immediately extended by the erection of a nave and a covered walkway.

The tradition of Bavaria calls for the heart of the king to be placed in an urn and kept at the chapel here. The heart of "mad" king Ludwig II of Bavaria, the builder of Neuschwanstein castle lies in this chapel along with that of his grandfathers and fathers.

Other architectural highlights in the town are the twin-towered Stiftskirche

Bonjour Georg
Joli cliché de cette petite chapelle ŕ l'architecture intéressante. J'aime le bleu de son clocher qui ressort bien sur le bleu profond du ciel.
Merci pour le partage et bonne journée.

Witaj Jurku!
Kolejny ciekawy kościół. Ciekawie wygląda ten spatynowany dach na tle błekitnego nieba. Dobry kadr i kolorki. Może trochę ostrości by się przydało więcej ;-). No i notka ciekawa.
Pozdrawiam
Krzysztof

Dobre, mocne kontrasty i imponujący pionowy kadr.
Pozdrawiam.

Hallo Georg,
perspektivisch ein ausgezeichneter Blickpunkt sowohl für die reizvolle Architektur als auch die schon von Achim benannte Gallerie. Das kritische Licht hast Du gut abgefangen.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

Hello Georg,
A good perspective on this interesting little church as it stands proud against the saturated blue sky. Interesting contrast in colours between the green-blue rood and the dark blue sky. Excellent clarity.

Hello Georg,

I like the green roof, I think that the roof copper is, maybe a construction style from Bayern with the high pointed tower.
Excellent composition and very pleasant colour.
Thanks for sharing.

Best regards,
John.

Witaj Jureku,
Architektura raczej u nas nie spotylana. Dość podobnych mażna spodziewać się w południowo-zachodniej Polsce jako pozostałośc kilkusetletnich wpływów niemieckich. Dobry pionowy dach i ciekawe odcienie spatynowanej miedzi na dachu kościoła. Bardzo ładne kontrasty jako odpowiedź na zastane warunki pogodowe.
Pozdrawiam serdecznie,
Jurek

Although some of the lower architecture is hidden by the trees it looks attractive with the arches all around. Good use of the vertical format accentuating the spires.

Bonjour Georg,
des blancs un peu surexposés, ce qui nous empęche de bien voir les angles et les détails des murs.
Les lumičres étaient belles pourtant.
Cadrage efficace.
Magnifique ciel.
Regards.
Daniel.

Simple building but interesting design. Good light and colours in the picture Georg.
