Map / Wallfahrtskirche St. Maria
Die Wallfahrtskirche, die auch den Namen "Zu Unserer Lieben Frau" trägt, befindet sich auf dem 530 m hohen Schönenberg bei Ellwangen an der Jagst. Es ist einer der bedeutendsten Kirchenbauten im Osten von Württemberg. Die Kirche ist ein herausragendes Beispiel des barocken Baustils. Sie ist darüber hinaus ein wichtiger Wallfahrtsort für Katholiken und Orthodoxe der Region und hat deshalb eine lange Wallfahrts-Tradition. Kommt man von Ellwangen in Richtung der Kirche, muss man eine steile, von Linden gesäumte Allee hinaufgehen. Dabei kommt man an fünfzehn Rosenkranzkapellen vorbei.
Ins Licht der Öffentlichkeit rückt die Schönenbergkirche immer einmal im Jahr zur Vertriebenenwallfahrt.
