    The small forest chapel "decke Tönnes" (fat Antonius) actually houses a large wooden figure. Find out more at badmuenstereifelaktiv.de/decke-toennes/.
    The figure, a copy of the centuries-old statue, fell victim to a fire at Christmas 2021 and had not yet been restored as of March. There is also an opportunity to park here.
