New place of worship
Star-children’s altar to provide comfort
Many visitors at the blessing of the shrine created by Hardy Brandner. In future, burials will also be possible.
The blessing of the Star Children's Marterl in Tiffen took place on Sunday with many visitors. Star children are children who died before or soon after birth. Every year, October 15 is the memorial day for the Star Children.
"In future, funerals can also take place in Tiffen and there is a special book of thoughts in the church," says Werner Rauchenwald, who had the memorial made by Hardy Brandner with the Tiffen Forum. There are separate benches to sit on.
"Star children are not entered in the birth register, but they still have a firm place in the hearts of parents and relatives," says Rauchenwald. "Tiffen is one of the seven original parishes in Carinthia, and now people give comfort to star children."
