The baroque hall church was built from 1731 onwards. The stucco in the interior was added in 1732 by Nikolaus Liechtenfurtner. The high altar, built around 1780, is surrounded by a multitude of sculptures on the walls. The large altarpiece between two columns depicts the beheading of Saint Catherine of Alexandria, the patron saint of the Pfaffinger church. The neo-baroque side altars were built in 1935. Saint (St.) Catherine is one of the fourteen Holy Helpers and is considered a helper for tongue ailments and speech difficulties. She is the patron saint of schools, philosophical faculties, seamstresses and tailors. (Wikipedia)

The parish of Pfaffing-Biburg - a unique village parish The parish of Pfaffing-Biburg is the only parish in the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising that has two equal parish churches. This is very unusual, especially for a small village community. The reason probably lies in the traditional church of St. Stephen in Pfaffing and the nearby larger village of Biburg.

February 2025: Landslide in the Amper Gorge in front of Grafrath, so the path can only be walked by experienced hikers or with pole protection.

At the moment, the last stretch of the path from Schöngeising to Grafrath is not accessible due to wind damage. You have to take the dirt road above the gorge.
