Mariä Lichtmess, Architectural heritage monument in Inkofen, Rottenburg an der Laaber, Germany

Mariä Lichtmess in Inkofen is a white-plastered church with a red-orange tiled roof and a 43-metre tower topped by a shingled spire with a cross. The nave has three bays under a gabled roof, a lower side section on the right, and a rounded apse-like choir end with a small window. The tower carries a clock face and two small arched openings near its top.

A church existed here by the 12th century; the parish of Inkofen is first documented in 1230, then covering Allgramsdorf, Eberstall and Rahstorf. The present late-Gothic building was begun around 1475. In May 1632 Swedish troops burned church and rectory during the Thirty Years' War; it was rebuilt in Baroque form in the second half of the 17th century, and renovated in 1904 and 1990/91.

The parish was a Marian pilgrimage site from the mid-17th century; a document from 1676 records that nearly the whole Rottenburg parish walked to Inkofen to pray to "Unserer Lieben Frau" for good harvest weather and against disease. The pilgrimage soon faded, but the Scapular Confraternity founded then survives and holds its main feast on the Sunday after 16 July, the feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel.

The church stands in Inkofen, part of Rottenburg an der Laaber. The tower rises 43 metres on the north side of the choir; the main entrance is through a small open porch on the west front. The Skapulierbruderschaft holds its main feast on the Sunday after 16 July.

The high altar was built in Landshut in 1684, carried by six twisted columns decorated with vine grapes. In its central shell niche stands a late-Gothic wooden figure of the Mother of God with Child, carved probably in the late 15th century and crowned only in the Baroque period. Flanking it are Baroque figures of Saint Joachim and Saint Anne.
