Liturgical Celebration on the Island

At the Münster on Fraueninsel, the parish association will celebrate the worship service as the highlight of the day. The island is closely linked to the history of the Frauenwörth Monastery and the veneration of Blessed Irmengard, who is known as an intercessor in various concerns of the people. Thus, a faith experience is created that uniquely brings together tradition, liturgy, and community.

On the Way in the Sign of Hope

The pilgrimage appeals to those seeking peace, contemplation, and a visible form of shared faith. The journey across Chiemsee, the arrival on the island, and the festive worship service give the day a clear spiritual movement: from the departure through the shared journey to the celebration in the house of God. Fraueninsel is a fitting place for this with its special radiance and long religious history.
