      The Marien-Lourdesgrotte on the Way of St. James near the church hill in Bendern is a small place of mercy of a special kind. It is used all year round at very different times of the day by people from a wide variety of backgrounds for quiet religious contemplation. A candle is lit and a fee is paid. As can be seen from some of the attached votive plaques, prayers to the Mother of God have had a positive effect in times of need. The grotto is located at the starting point of the historical high trail from Bendern to Schellenberg. The starting point of the Höhenweg, which is located in the Bendner Landstrassen crossing area, can be easily reached with the regular buses (bus station). Since the grotto is also part of the Liechtenstein cycle path network, you can also meet cyclists here. A small parking lot is available for motorists directly at the grotto. It's worth a visit!
