The great peculiarity of this statue of the Virgin Mary (Baroque, built in 1698) is its crescent-moon design! It sits enthroned on a several-meter-high column, set on a massive double base with a square cross-section. This religious work of art is framed by beautiful trees with spherical crowns, making it a pleasant place to linger in the shade. A brief prayer certainly wouldn't hurt! In Bavaria, statues of the Virgin Mary are often found in small grottos or at springs and were erected specifically with the intention of promoting healing.
