    The Iddaburg grotto is a place of silence. Pilgrims visit the place to worship Saint Idda. Although Saint Idda is not recognized as a saint by the Roman Catholic authorities, she is widely venerated as a saint by the people.
    When weather conditions permit, pilgrimage priest Fr. Walter Strassmann uses the grotto for short devotions.
