Top 15 Caves 도르 주변

The success of the film "Tatort Falkenlay" inspired the idea of building a concrete replica of the main character, the old Lippi, for the film crew, the community, and guests. Apparently, it's located in the cave of events, and so the idea was born! What should it look like? He prefers to indulge in his favorite pastime: relaxing around the campfire! A friendly neighbor lent his face and hands to create lifelike casts. They constructed the upper body skeleton from strong wire. The legs were made from plumbing pipes and attached to the body. Now the hard work began. Everything had to be filled with scrap paper, wrapped several times, and then rewired. After dressing Lippi in old pants, they could begin the concrete work. Now the fine details of the body were modeled. The head, face, hands, and feet, which had been pre-cast, were placed in their designated places. The masterpiece was complete! With the kind support of the Kennfus volunteer fire department, Lippi then moved to his cave beneath the Falkenlay!

I was scared at first 😀

"Lord Jesus, eternal Word of the Father, you have become silence for us. And in the silence that leads us to your tomb, there is one more word that we want to say to you when we think back to the Way of the Cross that we walked with you: Thank you! Thank you, Lord Jesus, for the gentleness that overthrows arrogance. Thank you for the courage with which you took up the cross. Thank you for the peace that flows from your wounds. Thank you for giving your holy Mother to us as our mother too. Thank you for the love you showed in the face of betrayal. Thank you for turning tears into smiles. Thank you for loving everyone without excluding anyone. Thank you for the hope you pour in in the hour of trial. Thank you for the mercy that heals misery. Thank you for laying aside everything to enrich us. Thank you for transforming the cross into a tree of life. Thank you for the forgiveness you offered to your murderers. Thank you for conquering death. Thank you, Lord Jesus, for the light you have ignited in our nights, for reconciling every separation and thus making us all brothers and sisters, children of the same Father in heaven." (Prayer for the Way of the Cross with the Holy Father, Pope Francis, Good Friday 2023)

At the end of the Stations of the Cross there is a neo-Gothic chapel, built in 1856, and several different memorials and places of prayer. A bright statue of Mary surrounded by a cave-like shape in the rock, overgrown with ivy and a kneeling supplicant below thanks the Blessed Mother. According to the inscription, it was placed there in 1954. https://www.kuladig.de/Object-View/KLD-245669
