The vital atmosphere at the brook bank The quiet splashing of the brook Lasankenbach is refreshment for the soul. You can reach it from the hotel Rosental in the town centre, then follow the street in southern direction until you arrive to the first station of the Via Crucis. The following stations of the Via Crucis are situated next to the brook Lasankenbach. Following its course, you reach the fishing pond and the water park (geological playground Water and Stones).Then the path leads along the sports ground to the parish church of St. Nikolaus' in Petschied. The quiet, little church, which presumably was built on a heathen sanctuary, hides a grotto of Lourdes in the inside. Through the woods to the opposite side of the brook, the path leads us on the way back to the town. The brook, which flows calm and constant, transmits us peace, tranquility and sense of harmony with the nature. |
