A rock chapel in the Lusatian Mountains has been a pilgrimage site for centuries :
Modlivý důl (Prayer Valley) near Svojkov in the Liberec Region is one of the most haunting spots in Lusatian Mountains. History of this pilgrimage site goes back to 1704 AD, when a local farmer placed a picture of the Virgin Mary on the rock face and prayed for a happy marriage and sons. Others followed his example and in 1760 AD, one of the locals replaced the image with a consecrated picture of the Virgin Mary.
