As Lourdesgrotte Mariengrotten are called, which represent replicas of the Grotto of Massabielle in Lourdes in southern France and Our Lady of Lourdes. In this grotto in 1858 St. Bernadette saw the Mother of God. On the site of the Marian apparitions, a Madonna figure adorns the grotto, whose original Joseph-Hugues Fabisch created in 1864 according to Bernadette for Massabielle.
