Τα 20 καλύτερα σπήλαια Hofstetten-Flüh

Από το 1926, η εκκλησία του μοναστηριού φέρει τον παπικό τίτλο τιμής Basilica minor. Αρχικά χτισμένο σε ύστερο γοτθικό ρυθμό, το εσωτερικό αναδιαμορφώθηκε πολλές φορές και μεταξύ 1900 και 1934 εξοπλίστηκε και ζωγραφίστηκε σε νεομπαρόκ ρυθμό. Ο ισχυρός κύριος βωμός στο τέλος του χορού, δώρο του Γάλλου βασιλιά Λουδοβίκου ΙΔ΄, καθαγιάστηκε το 1680.

In addition to its scenic beauty, the Kaltbrunnental Valley is a great outdoor playground for families. The stream offers fun activities and children's canyoning, easy access to the water, and barbecue areas are available. A hot tip, especially in summer.

The Mariastein monastery is considered the second most important pilgrimage site in Switzerland after Einsiedeln. Its origins go back to a legend in which a little boy fell over a high rock face and was then found unharmed by his mother. After he told his father that he had been caught by a woman, the father was sure that it was the Virgin Mary. He had a chapel built in a cave in her honor. The monastery complex can be visited daily, but services are held regularly. More information can be found here: https://www.kloster-mariastein.ch/informationen/agenda/

Already 12,000 years ago, gatherers and hunters used the protection of the caves in Chessiloch.

A place with a lot of history, charisma and beautiful nature. You should bring some time for this tour.

The Mariastein monastery is, alongside the Einsiedeln monastery, the second most visited pilgrimage site in Switzerland. Thousands of believers and pilgrims from all over the world make a pilgrimage to Mariastein every year to ask Mary for help or to receive her blessing. Of course, the impressive monastery complex and the surrounding lands attract numerous tourists and hikers every year, who bring home a wealth of memories with a suitcase or backpack, but also a full photo or cell phone memory card. A detour to the gift chapel hidden in a rock grotto and the magnificent basilica is particularly recommended. If you visit Mariastein, you should also, if possible, pay a visit to the nearby castle ruins of Château Landskron in Alsace, just a few minutes' walk away.

The Ermitage is a large and lovingly designed green area from 1785, with three idyllic ponds, several romantic grottos, historical buildings, pretty walking paths between the shore and the edge of the forest and, on top of it all, the castle ruins of Bierseck Castle, as the crowning glory of the whole. It is a wonderful place for physical and mental relaxation, but those seeking peace and quiet should visit outside of the holidays or weekends. It is a real visitor magnet. Warning! The grottos can only be reached on foot and via steep stairs. The rest of the garden is mostly wheelchair accessible and suitable for pushchairs. There are no parking spaces directly at the Ermitage! Free entry!
