The pilgrimage church of Maria Birnbaum is a baroque church in Sielenbach (Bavaria), dedicated to "Our Lady in the Pear Tree". It was built between 1661 and 1668 and served as a model for its dome architecture, the Pantheon in Rome. The pilgrimage dates back to a legend from the Thirty Years' War, when a mutilated figure of Mary was found in a hollow pear tree. Today, the church is looked after by brothers of the Teutonic Order, who also maintain their novitiate house here.

The Teutonic Knights likely acquired the manor of Blumenthal around 1254 and managed it through a commandery. It was first documented in 1296 under the name "Blümenthal." Even at this early stage, Blumenthal received lower jurisdiction from the Duke of Bavaria. It initially served as a commandery (leading commandery) of the Order within the Franconian bailiwick of the Teutonic Order, and after the Aichach commandery was abandoned in 1396, it became the headquarters of the commanders (heads of the commandery).

Presumably every passerby will cast a second, astonished glance at the small sacred monument standing here on the side of the road between two trees. The design of this cross "violates" our visual habits. We are usually only familiar with crosses with a perfectly plumb longitudinal beam and a perfectly horizontal crossbeam, but this formal language has been abandoned here. Perhaps some hikers or walkers passing by might find this "disorderly" when the beams are so "crooked and crooked." Perhaps, however, one or two passersby might also think of a "dancing" cross, joyful and exhilarated by the Easter joy of the resurrection, with which Jesus of Nazareth overcame death and suffering – to use the words of Pope Benedict XVI: "On the cross, the victorious splendor of Easter morning already shines." And this redeeming perspective is also our very personal, Christian hope.
