      Nice little chapel with rest stop. Here you have a great view of the surrounding countryside.

        The legend “According to oral tradition, on the occasion of the plague epidemic of 1713, the residents of St. Margarethen vowed that they wanted to carry all the building materials for the construction of the chapel on the mountain with their own hands rather than carts. But soon this became too difficult for the builders and they decided to make the work easier for themselves by leading up the building blocks. As a result, new cases of plague occurred immediately. From then on, the church was built in accordance with the vow made, which finally extinguished the cases of illness. "
