Another one of my Austria pictures from 2006. A slightly angled shot, to get both churches in the frame from the location I was standing at.
Some info about the area:
Perched beautifully on a ridge overlooking the Pöllau Valley, Pöllauberg is one of Styria’s absolute gems. It is famous as one of the oldest and most significant pilgrimage sites in Austria, drawing visitors for centuries to the stunning High Gothic Wallfahrtskirche Maria Pöllauberg, which sits proudly alongside the charming, pink-hued Annakirche.
Beyond its deep spiritual history, the village is practically a living postcard. It has won numerous awards for its incredible floral displays and beautifully landscaped themed gardens, making it a dream spot for a peaceful stroll. If you enjoy hiking, the surrounding Nature Park Pöllauer Tal offers gorgeous trails through rolling hills, orchards, and forests. It is the perfect place to unwind, soak in some panoramic alpine views, and enjoy a bit of authentic Austrian tranquility.
