Fahrenberg, Architectural heritage monument and sanctuary in Waldthurn, Germany.

Fahrenberg is a religious sanctuary and architectural heritage monument located on elevated ground in Waldthurn. The complex displays traditional Bavarian building forms and contains multiple spiritual structures within its grounds.

A castle of the Waldthurn nobility stood on the 801-metre summit; after the family died out it passed to the Cistercians of Waldsassen, who built a small parish and promoted the pilgrimage. Hussites attacked in 1425 and threw the Marian statue into a well, and in 1524 farmers from around Vohenstrauss plundered church and monastery. Under the Lobkowicz family the shrine revived, and the present church was built in 1775-1778/79 after lightning destroyed its predecessor in 1706.

The pilgrimage church is dedicated to the Visitation of Mary, and the miraculous image is a late-Gothic carved Madonna made around 1480–1490, dressed with the Child in festive robes. Since the Cold War, when Czech pilgrims could not cross the border, Bishop Michael Buchberger promoted the figure as the "Madonna of Peace"; after the Iron Curtain fell, summer pilgrimages from Stříbro, Tachov and Plzeň resumed.

The site can be reached from Waldthurn's center via marked pathways and is best explored on foot. The elevated location involves some climbing, so wearing comfortable shoes is recommended for your visit.

The miraculous statue, a late-Gothic carved Madonna made around 1480–1490, still bears a shot wound to the neck from an attack by Calvinist farmers; the damage is visible today. The figures of Mary and the child are dressed in festive robes.
