Crucifixes – that is, wayside crosses, field crosses, or crosses depicting the crucified Christ – can be found not only in villages and towns or in nature, but also in literature. Perhaps the most famous crucifix of this type can be found in the work of Giovanni Guareschi (1908 to 1968). He is the spiritual father of the humorous stories about the two protagonists 'Don Camillo' and 'Peppone'. Guareschi incorporated another main character into his stories – known and popular far beyond Italy's borders –: the crucified Christ, who speaks to Don Camillo from the crucifix on the high altar. The author himself makes the following comment: "So one must explain: If the priests feel offended by Don Camillo, they can smash a candlestick on my skull for all I care; if the communists feel offended by Peppone, they can break a club on my back; but if someone feels offended by Christ's speeches, there's nothing one can do. Whoever speaks in my stories... is my Christ, that is, the voice of my conscience. My personal business, my cause. And therefore: each for himself, and God for all." (G. Guareschi)

this is great quiet pond

Nice place for a break. Possibly to have a drink or eat something in the deep shadows and a little "Streichelzoo" for the kids and young at heart.

My plan was to take a dip in the water here. Which turned out to be forbidden on this side of the pond. There is a camping site with a beach just across the pond though.

The small chapel is located on the L1190 in Pfaffenreith. If it is open, take the opportunity to visit.

Edlersee with campsite

There is a seaside resort with a large shady lawn right next to the Edlerseeteich

The herb garden was laid out more than 30 years ago by the well-known herbalist Hermann-Josef Weidinger.
