Description

Pollingsried once consisted of six farmhouses grouped around a chapel (the "Pestkapelle"). Today only the chapel and four farmhouse wells remain, lost deep in the forest that has long covered the fields. When the plague raged in the region in the first half of the 17th century, the dead are said to have been thrown down the wells. Only when the residents swore to celebrate a mass in the chapel every year on the eve of Sebastian's day, on January 19, were they spared the "black death". The promise is kept to this day, and so the chapel carries the nickname "plague chapel".

If the Coronavirus comes, we may need to do it again ...
