Wallfahrtskirche Maria Hilf, Catholic pilgrimage church in Grafenwöhr, Germany.

Wallfahrtskirche Maria Hilf is a Catholic church in Grafenwöhr situated on Annaberg hill, distinguished by its characteristic Bavarian architecture featuring a nave and bell tower. The structure displays classic church building elements with carefully designed facades and a pronounced vertical composition.

A first chapel was built on the Annaberg in 1753; its choir was kept when the present nave was erected in 1849. In 1899 the choir flank tower was raised by a storey of ashlar masonry to house the bells behind biforate sound arcades, and an eight-sided bent spire was set on top. The building is listed as a Bavarian monument, D-3-74-124-4.

The church is also called Annabergkirche after its hill, Annaberg, and is dedicated to Maria Hilf, Mary Help of Christians. Mass is held in the 1849 nave under a barrel vault whose ceiling paintings were renewed; the 1899 tower storey holds the bells behind bifora sound arcades.

The church stands on the Annaberg above Grafenwöhr, reached on foot along the hill path; the climb is short but steady. The west choir and its flanking tower face the approach, so the tower with the 1899 bell storey is the first part seen. The interior is a single hall under a vaulted ceiling, entered from the nave side.

The tower was raised by one storey in 1899, built of ashlar masonry, and holds the bell frame behind sound arcades designed as biforia. The eight-sided bent spire sits on top. The nave's ceiling paintings were renewed, so the interior seen today is not the 1849 original.
