Best Hikes to Saint Hubertus Wayside Shrine
Tips
The shrine with a mosaic of St. Hubert seems to have been restored only a few years ago. For hundreds of years, the legend of Hubertus has been told, according to which Saint Hubertus (655-727) was hunted by a magnificent deer with a cross in his antlers. Therefore, Hubertus is revered as a patron saint of hunters and hunters, shooters and shooting clubs. According to the spirit of today, he is u.a. also patron of nature and the environment.
