Marian Grotto with Holy Spring

Highlight • Religious Site

The grotto commemorates the apparitions of Lourdes and is dedicated to the Virgin Mary. A small spring emerges from the rock, to which devout visitors attribute healing or blessing powers. A statue of the Virgin Mary watches over the site, often surrounded by candles, flowers, and silent prayers.

A rain tour today☔
From Schöntal Monastery to the old linden tree between 300-500 years old, along the Jagst, great plaque along the way and at the end over the beautiful Jagst Bridge back to the monastery. Unfortunately we were too late for coffee...we'll catch up on that 🤗😉
