saints and healing source
The church is located on the outskirts of the city Amorbach part Amorsbrunn. From the west on the B47 (Nibelungenstraße) coming, you can either park at the church itself (turn right, then two times right) outgoing line or on a migrant's car park (left).
Already in 1030 this source was considered curative. The monk Theodoric of Fleury said after a cure for gout, the water was a "rivus amoris" - a stream of (divine) love. This one was probably too ambiguous, and in 1445 invented the legend of the Holy Amor, who had built the first church here. But the truth is, after Amorbach or Amorsbrunn Amer / bunting - or swamp water.
This site is dedicated to Mary. It is said that here was a Germanic or Roman temple earlier, if that is true is beside the point. The clear and tasty water springs under the church, and flows into a pool. At the edge of the basin are "wells" have been scratched. From the Fünfernäpfchen states that water, and before that hineinschöpft as strikes to the eyes, eye diseases, healed. Generally, the water cure everything possible, including toothache-1652 text has been written that says: When you say: I have to pass away from big toothache, wash with this water your teeth. Great, I thought I was smeared on the short-sighted eyes and flushed my mucke always be Teeth.
Also, the water is especially good help against infertility. It is said, because was Empress Elisabeth, who was stingy with the Church entitled interest, only one daughter, Empress Maria Theresa, however, who took up the payments again, and still put stuff on it, 16 children. It was believed that the water was meant for love magic, they also told the children before, not stork, but "Ammefräle" they have drawn from the source.
A fine spring with beautiful water, the "good Vibrations" has, unfortunately, the situation is not quite as "lonely in the meadow," as my guide promised, a residential area adjacent to close, a few houses are right next to it and the Federal Highway leads close by the the square. The chapel can be visited by a day of Beltane 10 bis 17 Clock Inspired
