Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Frauenau

The Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary (German: Mariä Himmelfahrt) is the Roman Catholic parish church of the town of Frauenau in the county of Regen in the Bavarian Forest in Germany.

Saint Hermann (of Niederaltaich) lived from 1324 until his death in 1326 as a hermit in a monastic cell in the ancient forest.

His successor, Hartwig of Degenberg, built a chapel for a miraculous figure, "Our Dear Lady" (Unserer lieben Frau), the Blessed Virgin Mary.

As early as 1352, Frauenau was therefore elevated to a parish and, in 1396, a Gothic church was built.

Until secularisation in 1803, the parish of Frauenau was managed by Niederaltaich Abbey and Priory of Rinchnach.
