The Edelfrauengrab waterfalls are located near Ottenhöfen in the Black Forest, within the Gottschläg-Karlsruher Grat nature reserve. The water plunges over several rocky steps with a total drop of approximately 45 meters. A hiking trail of about 4 km leads directly through the waterfalls, ascending approximately 180 meters in altitude. The name originates from a legend surrounding the so-called Edelfrauengrab – a cave carved out by the force of the water, which can still be visited today. Between 1857 and 1862, the waterfalls were made accessible to visitors through the construction of walkways, bridges, and paths. Written evidence dates back to 1856. This development is likely connected to a visit by Grand Duke Frederick I of Baden, who was impressed by the wild and romantic landscape and supported its accessibility.

Lourdes grottoes can be found all over Europe. This one in Oberachern was inaugurated in 1996 after the Mary and Bernadette figures were in a lime tree near the Antonius Chapel for a long time and at some point fell into a Sleeping Beauty sleep there. The Lourdes Grottoes refer to the appearance of the Mother of God to St. Bernadette, which is said to have first taken place in 1858 in a grotto at Massabielle near Lourdes in southern France. Hardly any other place is more associated with miracles and healing than Massabielle.
