Klüschen Hagis, Catholic pilgrimage church in Eichsfeld, Germany
The Klüschen Hagis church stands in a small forest valley at 370 meters altitude, surrounded by elevated areas and natural springs.
Built in the 12th century as a village church for Neuenhagen, the site transformed into a significant pilgrimage destination during the 16th century.
The Men's Pilgrimage, initiated in 1957 by Catholic chaplain Ernst Göller, became a strong religious statement during the German Democratic Republic period.
The church houses a 13th-century Pietà statue and organizes multiple annual pilgrimages, including the major Ascension Day gathering for men.
Between 1573 and 1620, a hermitage stood next to the current church, influencing its name 'Klüschen Hagis' which means 'small hermitage of Hagen'.
