Monastery Tavern

Highlight • Restaurant

To recommend: Very nice service, very quick food, tastes very good. Was there at 12 noon on Saturday. The main road is currently being re-asphalted (probably finished in mid-August), you have to get off and push your bike past the monastery tavern on a narrow sidewalk.

Haberer wayside shrine

Highlight • Monument

Hier sollten sich früher die Haberer eingeschworen haben, um sich auf das Haberfeldtreiben vorzubereiten.

Das Haberfeldtreiben ist ein heute nicht mehr gebräuchliches Rügegericht im Bayerischen Oberland dem oft Reiche oder Angehörige der Obrigkeit zum Opfer fielen, zumeist aber Frauen, die unverheiratet schwanger geworden waren.
Dabei handelte es sich um ein nach mehr oder weniger festen Regeln ablaufendes Ritual, in dessen Verlauf den Beschuldigten in Versform ihre Verfehlungen vorgehalten wurden. Anlass der Haberfeldtreiben waren Verstöße der Obrigkeit gegen das Recht, das Rechtsempfinden des Volkes, sowie Verstöße Einzelner gegen Sitte und Moral. Die Teilnehmer, die Haberer, waren meist vermummt oder hatten geschwärzte Gesichter, damit sie von den Opfern nicht erkannt wurden. Haberer rekrutierten sich meist aus Bauern, Handwerkern und einfachen Arbeitern; sie führten meist Gewehre und verschiedene Lärminstrumente mit sich. Der Anführer, der sogenannte „Haberfeldmeister“, war an zwei weißen Gockelfedern an seinem Hut zu erkennen.


Die einzelnen Treiben unterschieden sich zwar in Details, hielten sich aber an den folgenden groben Ablauf:

Treffen der Haberergruppen am Sammelplatz
Schwur des Haberereids der bei Todesstrafe zum Schweigen verpflichtete
Geordneter Aufbruch zum Treibplatz und Wecken des Opfers
minutenlanges Lärmen mit Gewehren, Böllern, Feuerwerk, Musikinstrumenten, Ratschen, etc.
Wenn das missliebige Individuum zuvor trotz wiederholter mündlicher und brieflicher Verwarnungen keine Besserung gezeigt hatte, sammelten sich um das Gehöft des Missetäters hundert und mehr vermummte, geschwärzte, oft bewaffnete Personen, umschlossen das Haus und riefen den Schuldigen ans Fenster oder an die Tür, die er aber bei Leibes- und Lebensstrafe nichtüberschreiten durfte.
Sobald sich genug Zuhörer eingefunden hatten, wurde mit dem Verlesen der Rügeverse begonnen. Wenn das Treiben nicht wegen Entdeckungsgefahr durch die Justiz frühzeitig beendet werden musste, endete es mit einem Hoch auf den Landesvater und einer minutenlangen Lärmsalve.

Black Cross

Highlight • Monument

The legend goes like this: Once a devastating fire raged in the forest, which came to a standstill at this point. This place was marked with a cross that was singed on a crossbar. Hence the name "Black Cross" is derived.

The “Black Cross” later played an important role as a meeting place for the Haberer. The Haberer secret society came into being around 1700 when the Bavarian people suffered terribly from the Imperial-Austrian occupiers during the War of the Spanish Succession. The enemy mercenaries trampled law and order with their feet, so that the oppressed people spoke their own justice by denouncing the culprits in the Haberfeld drives with accusations, slanderous and mocking verses and a criminal court with infernal noise. In order not to be recognized, the Haberer masked themselves black and colored their faces with soot. In their ranks there was unbreakable loyalty and secrecy. The Haberer met on 30/31 for the last Haberfeld drift. October 1886 here at the black cross. After that the organization was banned.

The strongholds of the "Habererunwesens" were the Bavarian Oberland - especially the area around Tölz, Tegernsee, Miesbach, all the way down to Rosenheim. It experienced its heyday in the second half of the 19th century. The Haberer were mostly farmers, craftsmen and journeymen by profession. Haberer were often poachers in their "sideline". There was strict discipline in the ranks of the Haberer family. As with the Mafia or the Camorra, loyalty to the “patron” and secrecy were the top priority of the conspiratorial underworld or better undergrowth association. Breaking the Haberer oath was punishable by death.

Well, good old days, I don't know ... the accused of a Haber court was not allowed to defend himself and especially as far as moral misconduct was concerned, a number of gruesome things might have happened under the guise of people's justice.

Legend has it that a terrible crime took place there at the time of the Thirty Years' War in 1632. The Swedes had advanced into Dietramszell. They robbed, looted and pillaged. A father of the Augustinian Canons' Monastery had fled from the Swedes into the forest and hid there. But he was discovered by the enemy soldiers and cruelly tortured to death because he did not want to reveal where the monastery treasure was.

The "Green Torture" is a wooden memorial column with three picture panels at the top, which are protected by a tin roof. An old Dietramszell view (before the fire of 1636) and a picture of St. Hubertus, the patron saint of hunters, can be seen on it. The column is said to have a greenish sheen, hence the name. In 1950 the wayside shrine was renewed.

A less bloodthirsty version says that the "Green Torture" is a marking point on an important connecting route from Tegernsee via Reutberg to Dietramszell. It can also be seen as a border marking between the Reutberg Monastery and the Augustinian Canons' Monastery in Dietramszell.

Pilgrimage Church of Maria Elend

Highlight • Religious Site

The pilgrimage church "Maria im Elend" consists of an octagonal central building with a tower and sacristy and was built at the end of the 17th century. 100 years later, today's furnishings were supplemented with a rococo altar and stucco.
Unfortunately the lonely forest location of "Maria im Elend" is no longer as magical as it used to be. The ancient trees on the avenue leading to the church were felled in spring 2021.
