Now comes Mary, my Mother of God. Oh, it's beautiful! And now she's taking my hands. ”These are said to have been the last words of the carpenter Xaver Hiermeyer on his deathbed in 1944. Unemployed in the early winter of 1931, he dug up the Madonna from Spindeltal, which was hidden there more than two meters under the remains of the ruined church for almost 400 years.
