He continues: "As I was born in Konfeld, I have known this place since I was very young. Back then, my grandmother used to make special requests to the Blessed Mother. Following her example, the 'little picture' became a special place for me that I visit again and again, even if I don't have an intention and don't ask for the intercession of the Mother of God."
And he is not alone in this, as our reader has observed: "Judging by the large number of lit candles, usually well over 100, you can probably assume that this little chapel is a special place for many people from the Hochwald region."
In the early morning, when nature awakens, or in the late evening, when the many candles provide light and warmth, Wagner says that visitors can feel "a special peaceful atmosphere that is good for the soul". In addition to being a place of prayer, the chapel is also a meeting and communication point for people from the villages of Wadern and the municipality of Weiskirchen.
The good connection of the chapel to the hiking and cycle path network also brings more and more strangers to this place. Matthias Wagner: "A chat with holiday and hiking guests can be very entertaining and often a win-win situation for both sides."
