Kolomanistein

The Kolomanistein consists of two granite blocks stacked together with a hollowed basin carved into the upper surface. A chapel structure from the 18th century protects the site and houses a statue of Saint Koloman.

The stone was originally a pilgrimage site long before a chapel-like structure was built over it in 1713. The combination of natural stone and constructed shelter emerged during the Baroque period.

The stone carries the name of Saint Koloman, an Irish pilgrim whose veneration runs deep in this region. Visitors find a place where local traditions and folk beliefs remain alive today.

Access to the upper surface is via 13 steps carved directly into the stone. It is wise to walk carefully in wet weather, as the surfaces can become slippery.

The basin atop the stone collects water year-round and has been associated with healing properties for generations. This continuously filled natural water depression remains the focal point of local veneration today.
