Geocache Description:


THE LEGEND OF SAINT ARNOLD

Saint Arnold was born in 580 to a prominent Austrian family just North on Nancy, Austria. Saint Arnold was acclaimed bishop of Metz, France in 612 and spent his holy life warning peasants about the dangers of drinking water. Beer was safe, and "from man's sweat and God's love, beer came into the world."

The people revered Arnold. Arnold died in Remiremont, France on August 16, 640. In 641, the citizens of Metz requested that Saint Arnold's body be exhumed and ceremoniously carried to Metz for reburial in their Church of the Holy Apostles.

During this voyage a miracle came to pass in the town of Champignuelles. The tired porters and followers stopped for a rest and walked into a tavern for a drink of their favorite beverage. Regretfully, there was only one mug of beer to be shared, but that mug never ran dry and all of the thirsty pilgrims were satisfied.

THE CACHE

Here at this site of the old HISD Food Service building, you might get to participate in the legend of Saint Arnold. 'You' might find that 'one' mug of beer or a cache container located there.

Plenty of parking on the street available 24 hours a day. Be aware of muggles across the street. No mosquitoes were noted. Bring your own pen/pencil to sign the log.
