The statue of Mary on the "Star", enthroned on a stone base, was erected in 1882 by Carl von Droste-Hülshoff and his wife Pierrine to commemorate the apparition of Mary to Lourdes. Mary is portrayed as Queen of Heaven whose foot trespasses the serpent - the symbol of evil. Her gaze is directed towards the chapel "Hillige Seele".
