Guided Story
Look up at the towering roof of the Zehntscheune. Imagine farmers from centuries ago bringing their tithe here. Ten percent of their harvests—from grain to wine—were stored right here. This barn was like the region's treasure chest. Turn around and you can see the Resurrection Church just a stone's throw away. It was often where the community gathered while the barn stood watch over everything. Can you feel the history in the air? It's as if the old walls could whisper the stories of the people who walked in and out of here.
