Today we went on a very nice tour, far away from the hustle and bustle of Munich or the surrounding lakes... And we could already smell a little of spring. Starting at the Maria Birnbaum car park, the route first goes over asphalt along the road, I think we encountered a total of 8 cars. We had a delicious lunch …

Maria Birnbaum's characteristic architecture shapes the landscape far beyond the boundaries of Sielenbach.
Inside, the magnificent stucco work on the walls, ceiling and dome combines shapes and motifs from the Munich and Wessobrunn schools. In the center of the high altar is the image of grace - still in the pear tree today, which is located behind the altar.
