    Somewhat hidden, but findable. When you are there, very nice, small, with seating and a good opportunity to take a break.

      According to legend, at the end of the 19th century the Aying village shepherd of that time, the "Much", together with his sheep entrusted to him, sought protection under an ancient, large beech tree because of a thunderstorm. This place was popular because it has a spring where you could refresh yourself. For no apparent reason, all of the sheep suddenly ran in the same direction. The Much found her nearby in what was then a young wood. Minutes later, lightning struck the ancient beech tree and completely destroyed it. The Much would probably not have survived if he had stayed at the old location. Overwhelmed by the event, the Much knelt down and thanked God for his salvation. After that he was changed, taciturn and thoughtful. Weeks later he was found dead where he thanked him for his rescue, dressed in his Sunday suit. What and how he died was never clarified.
      Here was the beech tree where the lightning struck. The grotto is in a wooden chapel.

        The Lourdes Grotto is the name given to Marian Grottoes, which are replicas of the Grotto of Massabielle near Lourdes in southern France and Our Lady of Lourdes. In 1858, Saint Bernadette said she saw Our Lady in this grotto. At the site of the Marian apparitions, a Madonna figure adorns the grotto, the original of which Joseph-Hugues Fabisch created for Massabielle in 1864 based on Bernadette's information.
