    From here you have a wonderful view of the Saale valley.

    The chapel was built in honor of Sturmius, founder and abbot of the Fulda monastery.
    He is said to have brought the wine to the Saale valley. The Diebacher Chronik sees it as evidence that the first vines grew in the Saale valley on the Sturmiusberg.
    There were two highlights here: a chapel and a view.
    I think it's good that the highlights have been put together. The view and the chapel cannot really be separated.

    According to the Hammelburg monument list, the "Bergkapelle am Sturmiusberg" is a "small, massive hall building with a gable roof and western branch crowning," dating from 1892.
