As early as 1712, there was a wooden cross on the Werthesberg, where the Wendelinus chapel is today, where the Walldürn pilgrims from Eichsfeld stopped for a rest. The first chapel was built there in 1761 and expanded in 1881.

Unfortunately the tunnel was still closed and will not open until April 11, 2024, but it was still beautiful.
