Basilika Mariä Geburt, Frauenkirchen, Baroque pilgrimage church in Frauenkirchen, Austria.

The Basilica Mariä Geburt is a baroque church with two prominent towers rising above Frauenkirchen's roofline. Inside, eight side chapels line the walls, and elaborate stucco work and ornamental details cover the ceilings and pillars throughout.

The pilgrimage church, known since the 14th century, was destroyed in 1529 during the First Turkish Siege of Vienna and lay in ruins for over a hundred years. The Esterházy family, who acquired the village in 1622, rebuilt it from 1668 to 1669 and added a Franciscan monastery. Church and monastery were destroyed again in 1683 during the Second Turkish Siege. Prince Paul Esterházy funded a new baroque church by Franz Martinelli, consecrated in 1702.

The wooden statue "Maria auf der Heide" dates from the early Gothic period around 1240 and was later dressed in a mantle, two golden crowns and a sceptre. Prince Paul Esterházy is said to have carried it personally from Forchtenstein Castle to Frauenkirchen; the silk stockings he wore are kept in the monastery treasury. The original image, a Maria Lactans, stands on the first side altar on the pulpit side.

The church stands on a large square in the centre of Frauenkirchen, now laid out as a green space, with the former Franciscan monastery adjoining the north side; the cloister and its courtyard are reached from there. The interior is entered through the west portal beneath the stone Madonna niche dated 1240. The nave is 18.5 m wide and 23 m high, and the towers reach 53 m.

The grace statue "Maria auf der Heide", carved from limewood around 1240, was carried to Frauenkirchen personally by Paul Esterházy from Burg Forchtenstein; the silk stockings he wore are kept in the monastery treasury. The original image, a Maria Lactans, stands on the first side altar on the pulpit side and survived the 1529 destruction.
