The "Our Lady of Hausenborn" chapel is a popular place of pilgrimage: now much has been destroyed there. However, a witness may have observed something important.

According to the police, a witness reported on the phone that three male youths noticed on Sunday near the Hausenborn pilgrimage church in the Neuwied district . They went in the direction of the chapel, roared and bumped into each other. One of the three wore a striking jacket, the three teenagers were all about the same size.

It is not yet clear whether the three are responsible for the destruction in the chapel. The police now have to clarify this, they ask for information on the identity of the young people. In the pilgrimage chapel, a figure of Jesus and other Christian objects were destroyed and partly burned. The act was committed between Sunday and Monday noon, according to the police in Straßenhaus.

Jesus figure unscrewed, panels destroyed

Among other things, the perpetrators threw a 50 kilogram Jesus figure down a slope. The figure of the crucified Jesus was also unscrewed from a cross and landed in the garbage can.

The local mayor of Isenburg, Detlef Mohr, told Südwestrundfunk that he was stunned. The perpetrators had also removed a number of stone or wood panels from the walls in the small chapel in the middle of the forest. Some of these boards were found in the rubbish bin by members of the development association who look after the chapel. The wooden panels were burned.

It is a tradition around Isenburg that people hang these small thanksgiving plaques on the walls of the pilgrimage chapel when something good has happened to them - for example, when they have recovered from an operation. Especially at the end of the year, many people would come to the chapel in the forest near Isenburg because of this, says Detlef Mohrs.

In addition, the unknown perpetrators also removed the statue of Mary from the shrine in the small chapel and burned it, said mayor Mohr. But then they put the flowers back in front of the empty shrine. He couldn't understand that.

The police estimate the damage at 25,000 euros

The police said they were able to secure evidence at the crime scene. According to the police, there are at least two perpetrators. She estimates the damage at around 25,000 euros and asks possible witnesses to report.

ZEUGIN MELDET SICH NACH VANDALISMUS IM WALD BEI ISENBURG Haben Jugendliche die Wallfahrtskapelle im Sayntal verwüstet? Die Kapelle "Unserer Lieben Frau zu Hausenborn" ist ein beliebter Wallfahrtsort: Jetzt wurde dort Vieles zerstört. Eine Zeugin hat aber möglicherweise etwas Wichtiges beobachtet.

Nach Polizeiangaben hat sich am Telefon eine Zeugin gemeldet, der am Sonntag in der Nähe der Wallfahrtskirche Hausenborn im Kreis Neuwied drei männliche Jugendliche aufgefallen sind. Sie seien in Richtung der Kapelle gegangen, hätten dabei gegröllt und sich gegenseitig angerempelt. Einer der drei habe eine auffällige Jacke angehabt, die drei Jugendlichen seien alle etwa gleich groß gewesen.

Noch ist nicht klar, ob die drei für die Zerstörungen in der Kapelle verantwortlich sind. Das muss die Polizei jetzt abklären, sie bittet um Hinweise auf die Identität der Jugendlichen. In der Wallfahrtskapelle waren unter anderem eine Jesusfigur und andere christliche Gegenstände zerstört und teilweise verbrannt worden. Die Tat sei zwischen Sonntag- und Montagmittag begangenen worden, heißt es von der Polizei in Straßenhaus.

Jesusfigur abgeschraubt, Tafeln zerstört

Die Täter hätten unter anderem eine 50 Kilogramm schwere Jesusfigur einen Abhang hinunter geworfen. Auch von einem Kreuz sei die Figur des gekreuzigten Jesus abgeschraubt worden und im Mülleimer gelandet.

Der Ortsbürgermeister von Isenburg, Detlef Mohr, sagte dem Südwestrundfunk, er sei fassunglos. Die Täter hätten außerdem in der kleinen Kapelle mitten im Wald auch etliche Tafeln aus Stein oder Holz von den Wänden genommen. Diese Tafeln hätten Mitglieder des Fördervereins, die sich um die Kapelle kümmern, teilweise im Mülleimer gefunden. Die Tafeln aus Holz seien verbrannt worden.

Rund um Isenburg habe es Tradition, dass Menschen diese kleinen Danksagungstafeln an den Wänden der Wallfahrtskapelle aufhängen, wenn ihnen etwas Gutes passiert sei - etwa, wenn sie nach einer Operation genesen seien. Gerade am Jahresende würden viele Menschen deswegen in die Kapelle im Wald bei Isenburg kommen, so Detlef Mohrs.

Außerdem hätten die unbekannten Täter auch die Marienfigur aus dem Schrein in der kleinen Kapelle entfernt und verbrannt, sagte Ortsbürgermeister Mohr weiter. Danach hätten sie aber die Blumen wieder vor den leeren Schrein gestellt. Er könne das nicht verstehen.

Polizei schätzt Schaden auf 25.000 Euro Die Polizei konnte nach eigenen Angaben am Tatort Beweise sicherstellen. Es handele sich demnach um mindestens zwei Täter, so die Polizei. Sie schätzt den Schaden auf rund 25.000 Euro und bittet mögliche Zeugen, sich zu melden. (original)

“Three male youths”—you just know by that description that their names will definitely not be Heinrich, Horst, Johann or Friedrich.

One never knows these days, given the spiritual rot in Europe. I hope they’re caught and forced to apologize to the townspeople and pay restitution.
