Ave Maria is the latin for "Hail Mary", it is a version of the prayer set to music and sung at masses, reqeuiems, weddings and so on, so not strictly a hymn, sung by the congregation, but more of a soloist or choral song sung for the congregation.

If it's the one I'm thinking of I don't know if I'd call it a true hymn, because it doesn't really have the form of a traditional hymn. It's like asking if Mozart's Rex Tremendae is a hymn

It is not The Lord's Prayer in Latin... The piece may be adopted as a hymn by any church that chooses. As can any inspired piece. I hate hearing it as I find it offensive. Each to their own.

There's more than one - Schubert wrote one, Gounod wrote another - both are used extensively in religious ceremonies but as to being a hymn per se, I'm not sure.

It is a prayer set to music by a number of great composers. In English it means "Hail Mary, full of grace. Blessed art thou and blessed is the fruit of thy womb". The prayer is said by Roman Catholics.

possibly not
some references suggest its a carol
the tune by Schubert, the words by Scott
