March 15, 2026, Fairy Tale Forest Trail

Unfortunately, by 2025 there will no longer be a fairytale forest trail, but rather a wide clearing. The path was clearly "destroyed" here by forestry work.

"During the difficult times of World War II, the Catholics of Landstuhl sought refuge in the Mother of God. This gave rise to a vow to build a chapel if Landstuhl remained largely spared from war damage. - In gratitude and to fulfill this vow, this Chapel of Our Lady was built. Foundation stone laid on October 12, 1952; consecration on June 26, 1953" - Source (quoted verbatim): Metal plaque on the chapel

Here you can still see the remains of the engine house. Be careful, danger of collapse!
