Maria Langegg, Baroque pilgrimage monastery in Bergern im Dunkelsteinerwald, Austria
The monastery complex sits at 500 meters above sea level on a hill in the Dunkelstein Forest, 3 kilometers east of the Danube River.
The site originated around 1600 when Matthäus Häring built a chapel after his daughter recovered from illness, which later expanded into a pilgrimage destination.
The church interior features frescoes by Josef Ritter von Mölk and a Rococo organ constructed in 1782 by Viennese craftsman Stefan Helmich.
The monastery remains open to visitors through scheduled appointments and connects to the Aggstein Castle ruins via a 3.7-kilometer hiking trail.
During multiple plague outbreaks between 1630 and 1714, the monastery became a primary pilgrimage site known as Maria, Heil der Kranken.
