ウンガーハウザーヴァルトの天然記念物・トップ9

Hochfirst (706m)の森の真ん中に隠された場所に、Kammelquelleがあります。アプローチの最後の数メートルは、ほぼ完全にHochfirstを登るため、少し急になっています。 源泉へ歩いて向かう前に、必ず「Zur Kammelquelle」の標識で自転車を置いてください。源泉までの道のりはわずか1分ほどです。源泉のすぐそばにベンチが2つあります。 私の訪問時には、残念ながら源泉はほとんど流れていませんでした。

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
