When the sun shines in the morning, the interior of the church is illuminated in a very beautiful light through the colored windows in various shades of red. This looks very beautiful, you don't see that in many churches.👍

When we were there, the stream was carrying quite a lot of water. Even though we were wearing high waterproof shoes and our feet were a bit wet 😅

The chapel is dedicated to St. Roch - there is a small explanation of the chapel in the interior of the pretty memorial place. To St. Rochus see e.g. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rochus_von_Montpellier
