The Scharzacher Gate offers a view of the Steigerwald.

The list of the so-called “14 helpers in need” is not uniform everywhere, as regional peculiarities are sometimes taken into account. As a rule, the following patron saints are mentioned (the text is from a tablet from Memmingen, which dates back to the Baroque period; the original spelling – partially unknown to us – has been retained): St. Blaise - offers intercession for sore throats St. George - is to be invoked in times of war St. Erasmus - for intestinal and abdominal pain St. Vitus - a great friend of children's hearts St. Pantaleon - patron saint of physicians, powerful before God St. Christopher - he provides powerful protection against hail and bad weather St. Dionysus - is invoked in times of major pain St. Cyriacus - can help those possessed by the devil St. Achatius - he nimbly helps Christian soldiers St. Eustace - averts sorrow in marriage St. Giles - helps in the recognition of secret sins St. Margaret - where the devil's cunning finds access St. Catherine - when wisdom is needed lacking in studies St. Barbara - received the sacrament in death

The Oberlangheim hiking car park is located on the pilgrimage route to Vierzehnheiligen and is used by many pilgrimage groups as a station. Since 2016, the artist studio Muth from Unterneuses has been creating sculptures of the Virgin Mary and the 14 Holy Helpers at this location. The diagonally divided block, from which two triangular stones are created, represents the search for meaning in one's own life and the shaping of life with its ups and downs.

A real eye-catcher, no matter which direction you come from.

Not only the gate is worth seeing, the whole place is worth a detour.
