Wallfahrtskirche Maria Schnee, Seckau, Baroque pilgrimage church in Seckau, Austria.

The Wallfahrtskirche Maria Schnee stands at an elevation of 1,880 meters in the Seckau Alps, making it the highest pilgrimage church in the Eastern Alps.

Originally dedicated to Saint Jerome in 1660, the church received its current name Maria Schnee after the dissolution of Seckau Abbey in 1782.

The statue of the Mother of God remains a central religious element, transported between Seckau village and the church according to seasonal traditions.

Religious services occur on the first Sundays of July and August, July 26th for Saint Anne's Day, and August 5th for the feast of Mary Snow.

From the church grounds, visitors can observe panoramic views extending across the Mur valley and surrounding mountain ranges of the Eastern Alps.
