Depending on the weather and visibility, you can see more or less.

An outpost of Catholicism in a Reformed area.

A brochure from the parish of St. Martin in Root provides information on the history of the power place Michael's Cross: "Around 1,500 years ago, the pious Medardus decided to build a wooden hut in the Meggerwald forest to live there. While he was busy felling trees, a boy came to him and asked Medardus to take two tree trunks on his shoulders and follow him. After a four-hour hike, the two arrived at a hill near Root. There, the boy asked the hermit to build a cross from the two trunks. With the words: 'I am the Archangel Michael, sent by my Lord Jesus Christ to mark and consecrate this place with the sign of the holy cross,' the boy took on the form of the Archangel Michael. Since then, the hill on which the chapel stands today has been called Michael's Cross.

Inconspicuous and without view, easily accessible on simple forest paths

The Kappel monastery was a Cistercian monastery until the years of the Reformation, after which it was converted to social purposes, including as a boys' boarding school. Today, part of the complex is used as a seminar hotel and educational center. There is a monastery café for refreshments and a restaurant in the monastery cellar.

There are always impressive and moving events at Kappel Monastery.

Lindeberg Trail, the easy access, it was worth the effort.

Just enjoy the peace and quiet and the view. Hopefully the restaurant will be open again soon!🍷
