Beautiful chapel in the forest. Good opportunity for a rest.

St. Gertrude, born in Belgium in 626, is said to have fled to Karlburg Monastery. From there, she prepared another foundation for the monastery and kept passing this place on the way to Neustadt Monastery.
One day, at the site of today's chapel, she drilled a hole with her walking stick, whereupon the "Gertaudenquelle" is said to have arisen.
In 2008 relics of St. Gertrude were buried in the chapel built in 1741/42.
