On the parish pages on the Internet, it says:At the entrance to the Tiefenbachtal there is the Mariengrotte embedded in a rock. In the fifties, the existing niche in the slate rock of the Roßlacher Berg was expanded by the parish of Steinberg into the Mariengrotte. Every year at the beginning of the month of May, the statue of Our Lady is solemnly carried into the grotto by the parish church. Even today people meet here to worship the rosary. Adjacent neighbors take care of the decoration and maintenance of the grotto.Source: st-pankratius-steinberg.de/kirchen/kapellen
