If you want to visit the Plankentalkapelle, you have to find a way back. Outside the village of Kappel in the southwest, Stations of the Cross lead to the contemplative dormant place that keeps alive the memory of mourning and suffering. "Plankental", "Tränental" is called this place because the three sons of Blessed Adelindis, Beringer, Reginolf and Gerhard, were murdered here. The place of the chapel also indicates the place where Adelindis received the news of death from her husband Ato, who lost his life fighting the Hungarians. The southern exterior of the chapel depicts words from the tradition of this event in a second-half Sgrafitto of the 1940s: Adelindis was anxiously awaiting the return of her beloved husband and questioning the wind: "Windle, Windle, hurt until I see my master again . "He then appeared to her as a headless horseman, carrying his head in a bowl. Adelindis exclaimed in deepest alarm: "Windle, Windle, hurt until I can no longer see my masters."

The church itself is very beautiful, especially the interior. The legend of Plankental is also worth reading.
