Maria, the mother of God, has been worshiped on the Pöllauberg for centuries. This pilgrimage church, founded by Katharina von Stubenberg, is one of the most magnificent High Gothic churches in all of Styria.

The spacious church building was completed at the end of the 14th century. The Gothic bell tower was replaced by a new building in 1678, the tower dome was not built until 1744. In 1705 a new sacristy and a few years later two side chapels were added.
