The Ölberg – literally the “oil hill” or “Mount of Olives”– dates from the early 16th century and originally stood in the inner courtyard
of a cloister built around 1512. It was badly damaged by fire, but survived, with a roof erected to prevent complete collapse. The sculptures
were completed in the 19th century. The interior of the Mount of Olives contains a small chapel consecrated to Archangel Michael.
