Chapel of Our Lady at the Source of the Kahl

Highlight • Religious Site

The chapel was inaugurated in 2011 and is obviously very popular. This can easily be seen from the large number of candles that are lit and set up by visitors.

April 14, 2025,Kulturwege Spessart - Kleinkahl: Über dem Horizont

"The landscape around the Kahlquelle spring appears largely untouched and remote today – yet it is the result of centuries of human use. This is demonstrated by the stations along the cultural trail.

It is striking that the influences that led to the use of the landscape almost always came from outside: This begins with the hamlet of Bamberger Mühle, …

Today in bright sunshine a beautiful round from Edelbach along the Kahl to the Kahlquelle.
Behind Kleinkahl you pass a water treading facility in the shade, followed by an enchanted path that was probably designed by one or more artists. Here are all the knick-knacks that only catch dust in the household presented in the forest. A moose hangs somewhere, …
