The Lourdes Grotto in Zaisenhausen is the largest grotto complex in southern Germany.
In 893, the teacher Vogele, who was a teacher in Zaisenhausen from 1883 to 1890, built the Lourdes grotto made of tuff stone as a thank you for the fact that the water supply in Zaisenhausen did not collapse during a long period of drought.

The parish chronicle reports that in the year 1893 in the Jagsttal a great drought and a "terrible feeding tote" prevailed. The source at the Grotto Square was the last in the area that still had water.
