Quernst Chapel

Highlight • Religious Site

There used to be a hilltop church here, of which today only the remains of the surrounding wall and a mound of earth, under which the remains of the old Quernstkirche are believed to be, are visible. There are no documents about the founding of the church, but there is a legend according to which it was said to have arisen from a pagan sanctuary. Services for the surrounding communities were probably held in the church until 1528. This place also served as a market and burial place.

After the surrounding towns founded their own parishes, the old church fell into disrepair. In 2006, after much planning, the new chapel on the Quernst was built. A wonderful place to rest with a sensational view.

Fahrentriesch Pavilion

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Fahrentriesch, above an open space. From here the path bends towards Quernst. There is a half-timbered building nearby, which can be used for rest or as a shelter in bad weather. Exemplary signage is also available here. Following information about the Kelllerwald-Edersee National Park, the landscape on Fahrentriesch with rare bristle grass turf was created in the early 14th century as a clearing island. Heath remains, hat trees, grasslands, heaths and ravines are remnants of rural land use.
