The chapel mountain Althöflein lures with an interesting secret. Cave systems, so-called earth stables, are hidden inside. They probably served as a place of refuge for the population in the Middle Ages. This man-made cave system is divided into two to three floors, which are connected by riser hatches and air exchange tunnels. The tunnels should be in the 12./13. Century to have been created and have a total length of about 200 meters. These earth stables are among the largest of their kind in German-speaking countries. The Erdstallmuseum provides an overview of the research work and the facility. A film, the report of a villager, as well as a visit to the tunnels or a look into the earth stables bring the long past to life again.

An ancient pagan sacrificial stone was installed, on which the statue of Mary stands. The grotto was consecrated on May 16, 1908.
