Top 20 Caves シュヴァーベンでの

印象的な渓谷を巡る素晴らしいハイキングです。入場料は一人あたり9ユーロです。往復約4kmで、下の渓谷の小道を通ります。非常に混雑することがあり、道は狭いです。ベビーカーや車椅子は許可されていません。そのため、移動に制限のある方にはアクセスが容易ではありません。

s´Freile（「フロン」の俗称）は、歴史的または神話上の人物ではなく、1805年頃にアウクスブルクの彫刻家ヨハン・ミヒャエル・ハフによって制作された、泉の女神の等身大の石像です。彼女はホーエンアルトハイム近郊のウルシュプルンタールにある「ウルシュプルン」の丸天井の洞窟に座っており、細いベールに包まれていますが、腕はありません（かつて切り落とされました）。彼女の足元には小さな天使が座っています。 この泉は、エッティンゲン＝ヴァラーシュタイン侯妃ヴィルヘルミーネ・フリーデリケの命により整備され、ヤコブ・ケラーによって造園された景観公園「デア・ウルシュプルン」に組み込まれました。

頭蓋骨の巣 （1923年、1939年）の発掘調査により、宗教的な頭蓋骨埋葬の証拠が明らかになりました。6つの人骨の頭蓋骨が、洞窟の入り口に向かって西向きに立てて置かれていました。最上部の頸椎の存在と、これらの椎骨に見られる切断痕は、頭蓋骨が骨格とともに埋葬されたのではなく、暴力的な分離の後に埋葬されたことを証明しています。副葬品のない男性の頭蓋骨4個の他に、女性の頭蓋骨9個と子供の頭蓋骨20個が発見され、それらには4000個の穴の開いた貝殻（一部は地中海地域産）と200個の穴の開いた鹿の歯が添えられていました。

....... 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.

Pastor Johannes Baptist Schiebel A popular pastor and developer of the Breitachklamm gorge, he lived in Reichenbach from 1936 to 1963. Johannes Baptist Schiebel was born on April 29, 1871, the son of Josef and Rosa Schiebel, farmers, in the community of Petersthal in the Kempten district. After attending elementary school in Petersthal and high school in Dillingen, he studied theology there. He was ordained a priest on July 25, 1895, and celebrated his first Holy Sacrifice of the Eucharist in his home parish. In the same year, he became chaplain in Buchenberg near Kempten and, on August 1, 1896, chaplain in Schöllang. From February 1898, Johannes Baptist Schiebel served as a benefice in Oberstdorf, Loretto. On July 16, 1901, he came to Tiefenbach as pastor. As a great nature lover, he soon became aware of the unique natural wonder of the Breitachklamm and strove to make it accessible to the public. After painstaking work, he was able to present the completed plans to the public and find people willing to provide the necessary funds for the road construction. On July 25, 1904, the first blasting operations began, and the passage was completed on May 6, 1905. The opening ceremony took place on June 4, 1905. The pastor's wish thus came to fruition. On November 8, 1908, Schiebel moved to Vorderburg as pastor, where he immediately continued his energetic work. At the age of 51, he transferred to his beloved mountains in Schöllang on February 28, 1922, until his retirement. He founded a tourist association, initiated the introduction of bus service between Oberstdorf and Sonthofen, commissioned the restoration of the church by the painter Alois Haugg from Ottobeuren, and served as chairman of the supervisory board of the Raiffeisen Association from 1923 onwards. For his tireless work for the blessing and well-being of the people and the places where he worked, he was awarded honorary citizenship by the communities of Tiefenbach, Vorderburg, and Schöllang. Pastor Johann Bapt. Schiebel spent his retirement in Reichenbach from 1936 onwards. He celebrated Holy Mass daily and, in 1945, his Golden Jubilee as a priest in the Chapel of St. James. A statue of Our Lady of Fatima has stood on the northern side altar, the Marienaltar, since 1947. Pastor Schiebel established the still popular devotion in honor of Our Lady of Fatima at that time. ......... Source: https://www.reichenbach-oberstdorf.de/historisches/johannes-bapt-schiebel.html
