Tips
After the Second World War, a Mariengrotte was built, which was inaugurated in 1949. Like many Marian grottoes, it was built after the horrors of World War II, out of gratitude from the people that the place was protected from major destruction and the happy return of soldiers. The Mariengrotte was inaugurated in 1949.
