This is a place of worship carved into a large boulder. It was founded in 1740 by Anna Kny, the widow of the Dittersbach judge and innkeeper Christian Kny, and represented the Last Judgment. The year carved in is a reminder of the restoration by Johann Josef Kny in 1840. At the end of 2009, the administration of the Bohemian Switzerland National Park had the depiction of the Last Judgment renewed." - Rölke nature and hiking guide Böhm. Switzerland
