The church, built in 1653, is located on an old holy site on which a torture column, three burial mounds and two linden trees stood as early as the 16th century. Between 1643 and 1645 a small chapel was built there and an old image of the Virgin Mary was installed. After the discovery of a healing spring, Weihenlinden developed into a pilgrimage that reached the Weyarn Monastery in 1650. Three years later, a large church was built over the older octagonal chapel by Provost Valentin, which was consecrated in 1657.

Very nice bench with a view of the Weihenlinden pilgrimage church.
There is nothing more to add to Alnobbi's tip.
I have rarely seen such a beautifully written tip👍

The cycle path that passes by here is brilliant and deserves the recommendations it already gets. But this "rest and enjoyment bench with a view of the Alps" also deserves a HIGHLIGHT in itself!!!

I am always drawn here:

- the view over the endless meadows to the south towards the mountains,

- the view of the pilgrimage church of Weihenlinden, whose two towers look like one from here,
- the peace and quiet that you enjoy here (no street noise)
- the shade provided by the lush tree,
- the relaxation that comes when you linger here
