    You can also enter this hermitage and look around inside, it's just a shame that there are no further explanations.

      You can also look at this former hermitage from the inside, it's just a shame that there are no further descriptions.

            That - at least in winter - is the only thing worth seeing in the "English Forest". But we already liked it.

                Relatively well-preserved hermitage.
