Historical explanation: traditionally, a lime tree was chosen to the left and right of the chapel. The religious status of the lime tree goes back to pre-Roman times: at that time, they believed that the lime tree was a sacred tree. To this day, lime trees are the most common trees near chapels. They are said to offer protection, peace and comfort.
