The "Geological Organs" are conglomerate rocks where carbonic acid seepage water has gradually eroded the limestone over millennia. The resulting stone tubes are up to 15 meters high.

The Virgin Mary depicted and venerated here is that of Lourdes. This well-known Marian pilgrimage site is located in the French Pyrenees and is visited by a large number of people every year, including many sick people hoping for healing. The devotional image of the Mother of God has spread widely, not only in France, and believers have built Lourdes chapels and grottos everywhere. The ecclesiastical memorial day "Our Lady of Lourdes" is on February 11th, this is the anniversary of the apparition of Mary (1858), when the Mother of God appeared to the 14-year-old Bernadette Soubirous in a rock grotto not far from Lourdes. Bernadette later became a nun and died at the age of only 35. On December 8 (the feast of the Immaculate Conception of Mary) 1933, she was canonized by Pope Pius XI. The commemoration of the Lourdes Madonna is also World Day of the Sick.

In my opinion, this "Mariengrotte" is identical to the "Lourdesgrotte" (see link): https://www.komoot.de/highlight/247218

THE ULRICH FOUNTAIN The Ulrichsbrunnen belongs to the Ulrichsweiher. It commemorates Saint Ulrich (890-973), Bishop of Augsburg from 923 and the seventh abbot in the Ottobeuren monastery. As a tireless wanderer in his diocese, he combined pastoral care with caring for the poor. The legend tells that Ulrich, who was terribly thirsty, once begged God for fresh water and soon a spring gushed forth from which healing water gushed. The wayside shrine above the Ottobeur fountain, which was probably built in 1706 with the Ulrichsweiher, picks up on the tradition of Ulrichsbrunnen and springs, which was then widespread in the Middle Ages. The wooden figure of Bishop Ulrich with staff and miter behind a lattice was created by the Ottobeur monastery brother and woodcarver Felizian Lutz OSB Source: https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=Bildstock+Saint+Ulrich+Im+Kneipp+Aktiv+Park

Geological organs are vertical, tube-like cavities formed by the weathering of soft, fine-grained material. You can find them everywhere in the area of the alpine Ice Age gravel fields. Source: Wikipedia

Nature at the gates of the city. If the museum opens with catering at the weekend, it will certainly be a worthwhile detour.

Great rock formations from Nagelfluh, which migrated to Grönenbach during the last ice age. Basically the same as the boulders in the devil's kitchen between Obergünzburg and Ronsberg, just not quite as well known. The geological organs are still worth seeing, especially because there are hardly any people around.

The Lourdes Grotto was inaugurated in 1887. The couple who built the grotto made a pilgrimage to Lourdes in 1885 and were so inspired by it that they looked for a place for such a place of worship on their family property.

A mighty rock from Nagelfluh, the people of the Allgäu sometimes refer to it as Lord's Concrete, houses the geological organs. The name alone gives an idea of what to expect here: rock formations reminiscent of organs. It is exactly like that. The age of the formations should be interesting - the ravages of time have been gnawing at the rock for more than half a million years. Intruding water therefore had plenty of time to soften and loosen the hard rock and to flush out tubes up to 15 m high that stand side by side like organ pipes. www.allgaeu.de/a-geologische-orgeln
