Very atmospheric little grotto dedicated to the Virgin Mary. It is worth looking into the cracks in the corridor walls where one or two surprisingly shaped stones are hidden.

Suddenly you come across a small but beautiful grotto, an opportunity to take a short rest.

The Lourdes Grotto is the name given to Marian Grottoes, which are replicas of the Grotto of Massabielle near Lourdes in southern France and Our Lady of Lourdes. In 1858, Saint Bernadette said she saw Our Lady in this grotto. At the site of the Marian apparitions, a Madonna figure adorns the grotto, the original of which Joseph-Hugues Fabisch created for Massabielle in 1864 based on Bernadette's information.

According to legend, at the end of the 19th century, the Ayingen village shepherd at the time, the "Much", sought shelter under an ancient, large beech tree with the sheep he had entrusted to him because of an approaching storm. This spot was popular because a spring rose there where people could cool off. For no apparent reason, all the sheep suddenly ran off in the same direction. The Much found them nearby in what was then a young forest. Minutes later, lightning struck the ancient beech tree and destroyed it completely. The Much would probably not have survived if he had stayed in the old location. Overwhelmed by the event, the Much knelt down and thanked God for his rescue. Afterwards he was changed, taciturn and thoughtful. Weeks later he was found dead in the spot where he had thanked God for his rescue, dressed in his Sunday best. What and how he died was never clarified. The source and the entire history of both grottos can be found at the following link: www.mystisch.net/blog/?p=128

The Kupferbachtal was created at the end of the last Ice Age when the meltwater from the Inn-Chiemsee Glacier and partly from the Isar Glacier could not flow into the Rosenheim Basin, which was still filled with ice, and thus a longer period of standstill at the edge of the glacier (so-called Ellkofen Stage). Northeast towards Wasserburg or Gars towards the Inn (“surrounding channel”). The surrounding channel was formed and used between around 18,000 years ago and around 16,500 to 17,000 years ago. Today the area is characterized by several strong calcareous springs. Source and further information https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kupferbachtal

Worth seeing! Apparently there has been vandalism before, otherwise there would be no wireless wildlife camera in operation under the Madonna.

Nice waypoint, but not a highlight
