The overall layout today presents itself as a rectangular garden, divided into six rectangles separated by paths. The castle is centrally located, the paths are designed as avenues. The original garden design is no longer recognizable, most areas are covered with lawn, the middle rectangles have sparse tree stands, and another area has a bosquet.

According to legend, it was built by a wagon driver who, long ago, had gotten stuck with his wagon in the marshy area there. After spending the entire night in extreme distress and danger to his life, he swore that "if he was rescued, he would level this dangerous place and have a chapel built there in honor of the Seven Sleepers." The wagon driver probably dedicated the chapel to the Seven Sleepers, who are rarely venerated as saints in our region, because he had found a martyrdom scene with a relief of the Seven Sleepers there. This martyrdom was mentioned in various writings in 1530 and 1575.

The Seven Sleepers Chapel stands at the southern end of Stegaurach, on the road from Dellern to Hartlanden. In the simply furnished interior of the chapel, a stone altar forms the focal point. The altar relief depicts seven men at rest, the holy Seven Sleepers, with God the Father enthroned above them, surrounded by clouds and angel heads. The names of the Seven Sleepers, "Maximian, Malchus, Martinian, Dionysius, Johannes, Serapion, and Constantinus," were only recently inscribed above the altar. The Slavs, in particular, venerated the Seven Sleepers as saints, and so it is possible that, as early inhabitants of this area, they brought their cult to Stegaurach. On the other hand, one could also assume that, at the time of the Crusades, a returning participant from the local area heard of these saints, perhaps experienced the power of their intercession, and spread their veneration here.
