The oldest documentary mention of the church of Maria Schöndorf can be found in the “Mondseer Traditionscodex” from the year 823. “The church is probably even older, but the sources don’t go back any further,” says Elisabeth Würzl-Baldinger from the Catholic parish of Vöcklabruck. So this year the parish is celebrating the 1200th anniversary of the Maria Schöndorf Church. This makes it one of the oldest churches in Upper Austria and the oldest pilgrimage church in the district.
