Mountain Mass at Himmelmoos Cross: Remembrance in the Mountain World
When the view opens over the peaks and the silence of the mountains lets everyday life fade away, space is created for prayer, remembrance, and community. The mountain mass at Himmelmoos on October 17, 2026, is dedicated to the deceased comrades of the climbing group Oberaudorf.
Faith in the Open Air
The celebration begins at 11:00 AM at the Himmelmoos Cross. The service combines Christian liturgy with the unique atmosphere of the alpine landscape. Amidst mountain meadows, rocks, and a vast horizon, collective remembrance becomes a deeply felt religious experience.
