St. Ulrich Church, Neuburg an der Donau

Highlight • Religious Site

The church, consecrated in 1964, was planned before the Second Vatican Council and built during it. Its design is, so to speak, a document in stone of the struggle for the liturgical changes in the Catholic Church before and during the Second Vatican Council. Its architect, Karl Sendlinger, had already anticipated most of the structural changes of the Council. And yet there are still testimonies from the pre-conciliar period. A number of well-known artists worked in the church: Elmar Dietz (e.g. Nymphenbrunnen Munich) is responsible for the unique altar wall, Max Faller (e.g. west portal of the Speyer Cathedral) for all bronze works, Father Benedict Schmitz (works from Speyer to Hungary and Switzerland) for the altar windows and the magnificent mosaics. In addition, there are also works of art by parishioners Mary Anne Strobel and Helga Adolph, such as “The Baptism”, “Easter” and “Silent Night”.
The external form of the church is intended to express the architectural statement: "Behold, God's tent on earth!" - not least the unusual shape of the cross on the top of the church tower (the finger of God) indicates this.

Kahlhof Chapel Maria im Gnadenfeld

Highlight • Religious Site

The "Kayhof" was first mentioned in writing in 1486. In its immediate vicinity there was a shrine with a depiction of the Virgin Mary.

During the Thirty Years' War the Kayhof and shrine were destroyed. The then owner Wolfgang Michael Silbermann, who was also the regional chancellor at the Fürstenhof in Neuburg, had the farm rebuilt and built a small wooden chapel.

In 1642 the Neuburg Crown Prince Philipp Wilhelm married the Polish princess Anna Catharina Constantia. Her dowry included an image of the Black Madonna of Czestochowa. Silbernann placed a copy of this icon above the altar of the chapel, where it still stands today.

In 1656 the Kayhof was elevated to the "Gnadenegg" estate, and in 1688 it was renamed "Gnadenfeld". Soon people heard about the miraculous power of the image of the Virgin Mary, of which numerous votive tablets still bear witness today. Many pilgrims came to visit "Mary in the Field of Grace" and to ask for help.

At the end of the 18th century, the Chapel of Grace was built as a stone structure in its current form and was expanded soon after.

The patronage of "Mary's Name" is celebrated on the second Sunday in September as part of the "Kahlhof Festival".
