The lovely historical corner in Oberndorf, with the Silent Night chapel in the image center

It's in the chapel that, in 1818, Franz Xaver Gruber wrote the melody and Joseph Mohr the words to what is nowadays the world's most beloved Christmas carol - "Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht" - "Silent Night, Holy Night".
