The Josefskapelle in Lind was expected to be completed in 1860 after the first chapel had to be demolished in 1856 due to dilapidation. The new chapel was solemnly consecrated on March 19th, 1858. In 1994, a sacristy was built east of the choir, which is used by the pastor and the altar boys to prepare for Holy Mass.

The special reason for building the Kaiserhalle in this form as a self-supporting domed hall was the need for the builder Wilhelm Bell to provide evidence that local building materials such as lime, lava sand and trass can also be used for extreme loads. At a time before the turn of the century, when cement had started its triumphal march and the mining of the tram in the Brohl valley continued to decline, such proof seemed necessary.

The legacy of the last abbot of Echternach is now a special attraction in the region. The late baroque castle with its beautiful gardens and outbuildings as well as the adjoining grounds of the former ironworks tell a story all of their own.
