Police are hunting vandals after a series of chapels and shrines were desecrated within the space of a few days in northern Austria.
Statues have been beheaded, prayer books burned and sacred images destroyed since the New Year in the Innviertel region on the Bavarian border.
On New Year’s Eve, the vandals struck a chapel in the village of St Radegund, damaging a statue of the Virgin Mary before burning prayer books and wooden objects from the chapel in a nearby wood.
That same day, another chapel at the nearby town of Auerbach was also attacked, with vandals smashing the glass guarding two Virgin Mary statues and stealing at least 22 murals, which they also burned in a wood.
ORF says the chapel is visited by about 20 people per day due to the supposed healing qualities of a nearby well.
Days later, a third chapel in Braunau am Inn, another town in the region, suffered a similar fate. The vandals stole a Christ figure from a cross and several other sacred objects. They also beheaded a statue of St Barbara. The damage to the small chapel is estimated to be around 5,000 euros.
Police have appealed for information, saying they have little to go on in tracking down the perpetrators.

Both Dülmen and Innviertel have witnessed an influx of migrants over the past year as part of Europe’s ongoing crisis.
Here's hoping my Bavarian countrymen know better than to put up with this attack on their traditions.

Time for Austrian men to pull up their britches, grab pitchforks, guns and gasoline and go visit nazi mosques. And if the Austrian leadership doesn’t approve, too bad.
Well, Austria voted for it, enjoy.
They still don’t get it.
Could they have been moozlums? DOH!

Their current PM who got elected actual said that Austria isn’t worth preserving - Alexander Van Der Bellen.
The Vandals were Arian Christians and didn’t like Nicean Christians.
