    You should take a look, the small grotto is part of the Tanzacker circular route. It was built in the steep rocky slope by Italian railway construction workers around 1904 during the construction of the "Royal Bavarian State Railway". There is a figure of the Lourdes Madonna in it. Also known as “Bräugrotte”.

    Italian railway workers built this grotto in honor of the Holy Mother of God directly on the railway line.
