A mystical place from pre-Christian times. A monument carved by hand into the sandstone.
Several benches invite you to linger. The interiors are closed due to the danger of collapse, you can only catch a glimpse through the small ventilation holes on the front door.

The knight carved in stone is the symbol of the rock hermitage.

Next to the chapel there is a rock tomb of a knight with his tomb. As early as the Middle Ages, the Hermitage was a place of attraction because a knight had himself buried here. In addition, the place must have been a place of pilgrimage before its tragic end, as evidenced by a guest house from 1759.
