Description:
Judenburg's Maria Buch is one of the oldest pilgrimage churches in Styria. A Late Gothic hall building, it was begun in 1455. Above the tabernacle on the high altar stands the Holy Mother of Maria Buch, a life- size statue of the Virgin in red and blue (1480); in one hand she is holding the baby Jesus, in the other a sceptre. Also worth seeing are a number of side altars and statues and an outsize Late Gothic crucifix (1500) by Hans Gschiel.
