Mariä Himmelfahrt, Catholic pilgrimage church in Buggenhofen, Germany
The church structure displays a plain exterior with a tower octagon, while the interior reveals detailed Baroque and Rococo decorative elements throughout the space.
Following the discovery of a miraculous statue of Virgin Mary in 1471, the church underwent major construction between 1678 and 1680 with subsequent renovations.
The interior houses 191 votive images from the 18th and 19th centuries, demonstrating the religious dedication of local communities through generations.
Located in the Geopark Ries region, the church connects to multiple cycling routes, including the 33-kilometer Buggenhofen-Kesseltal loop trail.
The frescoes by Johann Baptist Enderle from 1769 depict the Coronation of Mary celebrated by four continents, with Latin inscriptions marking Marian virtues.
