Mariabuchen

Mariabuchen is a pilgrimage church situated in Lohr am Main that stands on a hillside near the Romberg area. The building displays traditional Bavarian church architecture with straightforward but dignified forms.

This location developed as a pilgrimage site over centuries, becoming an important religious center for the Main-Spessart region. The church continues to serve this historical purpose today and remains a destination for local believers.

The church draws pilgrims from the surrounding region who come to pray and practice their faith here. Its long tradition as a pilgrimage destination continues to shape how visitors experience and use this sacred space.

A marked walking trail of about 11 kilometers connects Schlossplatz in Lohr am Main to the church, with rest stops available at Buchenmühle. The return route follows a creek valley, providing a natural change of pace after the uphill walk.

The return path follows the Buchenbach creek valley, where hikers pass between steep banks and old trees in a completely different landscape. This contrast between hilltop and valley makes the round trip memorable.
