    Since the end of the 16th century, hermit monks from the monastery of Echternach lived in the hermitage carved into the rock below the chapel.

      To get to the hermitage, you have to climb a few steps (no matter from which direction). This remote place and the great one on Echternach with its basilica are all the more impressive.

        Nice view over Echternach. You go down a steep staircase
