There is a legend, that around the year 600 the Archangel Michael appeared to hermit Medardus and asked him to errect a cross here on this hill. It seems historically certain that there actually was a missionary cross there at the time, one of the first to be erected in this area during the course of Christianization. From the Michaelskreuz the Christianization of the wider area is to take place.
In 1436 a wooden chapel was built in place of the cross, which was replaced later by a stone chapel.
I especially love the old and huge linden trees. And it is not far from us, so we visite this place in every season.
ing narrative too!
