Geocache Description:


A small multi-cache on the Helpeknapp.

On the Helperknapp is situated one of the most magnificent chapels located in the area. This pilgrimage chapel is dedicated to St. Willibrord.

Nearby you can find a cave with spring water. The Legend has it that the blind emperor Charlemagne washed his face with spring water and the eyes could see back then.

Even today, the believers pilgrim to this place every Whit Monday to come together in prayer there.
