    In the Liebfrauensee below the Marienkapelle a youth wanted to drown himself because the proud miller refused to give him his daughter in marriage.



    As the young man stood on the bank about to throw himself to his death, Our Lady appeared to him. Word of the miracle got around in town, and the young man then got the girl and the lake was named Liebfrauensee.



    It is also reported that the lake is incredibly deep and connected to the ocean underground and that a giant is sleeping on the bottom. If it ever rises, the city will be flooded.

      The 1,076 m2 Liebfrauensee serves as a water source for the fountain at the town hall and in summer as a thirst quencher for the citizens of Kissingen. The stream that rises at the Liebfrauensee flows, today built under the road surface, e.g. via the Bachstraße through the city center and ends in the Bad Kissinger Rosengarten. The originally open stream was once used to remove rubbish and (for example at today's Rathausplatz 5) to drive mills.

        Info from Bad Kissingen: Apparition at the lake - In the Liebfrauensee below the Marienkapelle a youth wanted to drown himself because the proud miller refused to give him his daughter to wife. As the young man stood on the bank about to throw himself to his death, Our Lady appeared to him. Word of the miracle got around in town, and the young man then got the girl and the lake named Liebfrauensee. It is also reported that the lake is incredibly deep and connected to the ocean underground and that a giant is sleeping on the bottom. If it ever rises, the city will be flooded.
