Maria Dreieichen#
Maria Dreieichen, Lower Austria, part of the municipality of Rosenburg-Mold, alt. 378 m, place of pilgrimage (since 1656) situated on the northern slope of Manhartsberg Hill; due to its location, the Late Baroque pilgrimage church can be seen from far. Planned by L. Wissgrill, it was built between 1744 and 1750; ceiling paintings and murals by P. Troger (1752), J. W. Bergl and J. Hauzinger, altar piece by Bergl and M. J. Schmidt (1768). Its treasury contains numerous votive offerings (including a votive picture by J. Fuehrich, 1837). Near the church are the Bruendl Chapel and the Grasel Den, where the robber chief Grasel is said to have hidden.
