Lourdesgrotte Maria Ellend

A small pilgrimage site, built in 1910 and now a listed building, is located on Bahnhofplatz in Maria Ellend. Inside the park-like grounds, you will find Stations of the Cross, Rosary paths, other small sacred buildings and the Lourdes Grotto, after which the square is named. The complex is in the tradition of the pilgrimage site of Maria Ellend, whose current pilgrimage church was built in 1770/72.

The site is culturally enlivened primarily in the open air. The Haslau-Maria Ellend brass band invites you to the Brass Band Advent, where woodwind and brass ensembles play pre-Christmas pieces and food and drinks are provided. Spring concerts, Advent singing and musical accompaniments such as the Resurrection Mass at the Easter bonfire also take place at the grotto.

Amongst the trees, paths and gardens, a quiet, natural setting for music throughout the year is created.
