Mount Michelberg

Mount Michelberg offers impressive and far-reaching views in all directions. On a clear day, one can see as far as Mount Schneeberg and the Small Carpathians. The first church on Mount Michelberg was probably built as a parish church on pre-Christian foundations dating back to the 9th century. In 1745, a Baroque pilgrimage church dedicated to the Virgin Mary was erected but torn down again in 1785, since it was too difficult to access for service. It was replaced by the parish church in Haselbach, built from 1785 to 1788.
