JOHN THE BAPTIST (also called JOHN THE BAPTIST), to whom this mountain chapel is entrusted as a patron saint, is a man mentioned in the Bible at the very beginning of the New Testament, as he is half a year older than Jesus. His parents are Zechariah and Elizabeth. After the proclamation of the Incarnation of God through them, the Mother of God visits her relative Elizabeth, who, in her old age, will give birth to a son, John the Baptist. He lives in the desert, preaches repentance from sin to the Jewish population, and baptizes them in the Jordan. Jesus also comes there to be baptized, where he is filled with the Holy Spirit, who descends upon him from heaven. John is therefore considered his forerunner/paver in Christian theology. The Evangelist Luke writes: + "A voice calls in the desert: Prepare the way for the Lord! Make straight his paths! (...) And all people will see the salvation of God." Saint John the Baptist has two commemoration days in the calendar of saints: that of his birth is on June 24, exactly six months before Christmas Eve; that of his beheading is on August 29.

Currently (Nov 2024) it looks like a renovation is underway here. Someone is putting up a fence around the house - to keep hikers away and fence off private property? (See my photos)
