In a lonely valley, the Wittichen monastery stands on the edge of the rushing brook and takes you on a journey into the past. Centuries ago pilgrims passed here and found rest, contemplation and salvation on their way to the apostle Jacob, who was to be found from here in almost inaccessible distance.
