Tips

Andrea und Huskys 🐺

August 30, 2022

Years ago, Karin Rohrer from Höchstädt Castle decided to do this
to donate a chapel to a scenic spot that is visible from afar. A small church was to be built on its foundation as a field chapel. Her son-in-law, master builder Harald Berger, took on the design and planning.
During the construction work, the helpers and experts experienced the impressive
Spectacle of the weather changes on the stage of the surrounding Fichtelgebirge scenery. So the plan to set up part of the chapel as a shelter for hikers and cyclists, who should linger and look out over Bohemia from this high vantage point, matured early on.

The chapel blends harmoniously into the landscape. Was also intended as a shelter in bad weather for cyclists and hikers.
