Pilgrimage, wonder, reflection.
Discover Mariazell
Just a short drive from Lunz lies Mariazell, one of Europe’s most renowned pilgrimage destinations. For centuries, the Mariazell Basilica has attracted visitors from around the world – as a spiritual center, a place of encounter, and an architectural gem.
The baroque basilica with its Gothic chapel of grace fascinates not only the faithful but also lovers of art and architecture. The town tells stories of pilgrims, emperors, and ordinary people who came here in search of strength and solace.
Beyond the basilica, Mariazell invites visitors to stroll through its narrow streets, regional craft shops, and culinary traditions. Famous highlights include the Mariazell gingerbread and the herbal liqueur, both deeply rooted in the town’s history.
A trip to Mariazell is a journey into history, culture, and spirituality – a contrast and complement to the tranquility of Refugium in Lunz.
