German term

Kirchenpatrozinium

German to English Other Religion
List of special catholic church services held in various churches in one region

Some are listed with the saints to which the church is dedicated, e.g. in the church called "Pfarrkirche St. Johannes" there is a special service called "Patrozinium Hl. Johannes der Täufer" which I think would be translated as "PATROCINIUM OF St. John the Baptist"

However, in the church called "Kirche Maria Heimsuchung" the special service is held on the feast of the "Visitation of Mary" and, in this case, the service is simply called ***Kirchenpatrozinium***.

Not sure what to do with that...

feast of patronage

The language in this source has some flaws but I think the basic translation is correct:

"The typical Carolingian grant of patronage (Patrozinium) for St. Martin might be regarded as proof of it. It was not before 1358 that the church was first mentioned in a letter of indulgence as the successor of an older church there."

I believe "Kirchenpatrozinium" is a reference to the church's own feast day (Das Wort wird auch für das Hochfest gebraucht, an dem der Heilige gefeiert wird, dem die Kirche geweiht ist (Patronatsfest). http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrozinium
