Mariastein - Castle and church, Medieval castle and pilgrimage church in Tyrol, Austria.

The white castle structure rises above the landscape, featuring a chapel at its summit accessible through 142 stone steps.

The Freundsberger Dynasty initiated construction in 1361, transforming the site into a significant pilgrimage destination by the eighteenth century.

The castle museum displays the Tirolese Regalia collection, including the Archduke's Hat and scepter donated by Emperor Maximilian.

Visitors can explore the castle and church daily from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with facilities adapted for wheelchair access.

The interior of the chapel contains a Madonna painting that draws numerous pilgrims, while the structure offers views across the Hohe Salve region.
