    Commemorative plaque - bronze relief - dedicated to Johann Schiebel, the developer of the gorge, by the Breitach Gorge Association

    In 1955, he celebrated his 60th priestly jubilee with a large turnout from the parish in the Schöllang parish church. In 1961, on the occasion of Pastor Schiebel's 90th birthday, Bavarian Radio broadcast a film about the developer of the Breitach Gorge. Two years later, on February 18, 1963, the beloved Pastor Schiebel passed away. A large congregation of mourners accompanied the deceased pastor on a cold winter day in a snowstorm to the Schöllang castle cemetery, where he was laid to rest.
