Jagabildkapelle Haugstein

This chapel was built to commemorate the miraculous rescue of the forester of Vichtenstein Castle, who was hanged in an anthill by poachers. The Jagabild Chapel is now a district hunters' memorial. The altarpiece today shows the Mother of God with the Child, surrounded by forest flowers. Next to her kneel the hunter Greiner and the patron saint of huntsmen, St Hubertus. A stag stands next to them, carrying a shining cross in its antlers.
