Wayside Shrine "Jesu Namen"

The old wayside shrine is on the local mountain "Kampl". According to a legend a boy lost orientation in the west area of the summit. 

In his desperate situation he tried to find shelter by the spirit of god and cut the holy letters "IHS" in the grass. Shortly after that he found his way home. The myth says, that this name was visible almost until the second half of the 20th century. Therefore nowadays there is a cross and once a year people celebrate a mountain fair there. 

At the time this legend was recorded (1925), the narrator Franz Egger, who was about eight years old at the time, stated that his grandfather had seen the apparition on the Kampl himself. However, the two legends of the Salzschwärzerbande and Jesus' name on the Rötelstein tell the same story in different contexts in the same alpine pasture area and are most likely older. It can therefore be assumed that this is an older legend that Franz Egger had heard from his grandfather and, in his childlike faith, associated with his grandfather.
