    Small chapel with a bench and table to take a break

      Saint Anne is the mother of Mary, the mother of God, i.e. the grandmother of Jesus Christ, which is not attested to in the biblical texts. However, it is mentioned in apocryphal writings (that is, writings that are not included in the canon of the Bible), for example in the so-called "Protoevangelium of James". There is no historically reliable information about the life of Anna, but there are numerous stories that have been handed down, which are summarized, for example, in the medieval "Legenda Aurea" by the Dominican monk Jacobus de Voragine. Among other things, she is the patroness of the Annakirche in Düren (NRW), where a piece of her skullcap is kept as a relic.
      In the church calendar, the memorial day of Saint Anne - together with her husband Joachim - is on July 26th.

          The St. Anna Chapel near Stettfeld, originally built in 1713, is a gem that can be seen from afar. For the 300th anniversary in 2013, the chapel was restored and the surrounding area redesigned. On the initiative of the "History Working Group", the forecourt was upgraded with the newly created Anna figure by the artist Steff Bauer. The attached seating area with table invites you to linger and enjoy. A wonderful place!
