The vineyard chapel above the village of Leiwen offers a welcome opportunity for a rest after the first climb—which is not steep, but rather long—and, of course, especially inviting for inner contemplation. In two niches of the lovingly maintained sanctuary are statues of the Virgin Mary as the "Grape Madonna" (patron saint of winegrowers) and of Saint Lawrence (patron saint of winegrowers).

Hiking

From the small chapel you have a great view of the vineyards around Leiwen. Benches and a wooden lounger invite you to rest in the sun.

Small chapel with a great view of Leiwen and the Moselle valley, there are many benches to linger. A nice place for a little break.
