Maria in der Tanne

Maria in der Tanne is a pilgrimage sanctuary with baroque features located in a forested area of the Black Forest region. The church features ornamental decorations, frescoed walls and sculptures that adorn both interior and exterior surfaces.

The church developed in the 17th century following reports of healings connected to a nearby spring. The sanctuary then grew into an important religious center for the Black Forest region.

The site draws pilgrims from across the region seeking spiritual renewal and connection to local faith traditions. The sanctuary reflects the deep Catholic beliefs that have shaped life in this Black Forest area.

The sanctuary is set among forest paths and is easily accessible for walkers exploring the area. Visitors should prepare for changeable mountain weather and wear appropriate footwear.

A tailor once placed a figure of Mary inside a tree cavity to give thanks for his own recovery. This unusual origin story shapes the identity of this revered place to this day.
