A noble pride demanded to communicate with a greater host; upon receiving it, the earth seemed to sink under his feet and the Holy Form dyed with blood.
Documented history and memory received
The parish of San Osvaldo de Seefeld has been documented since the 14th century and has become an important pilgrimage destination. According to the local legend, in 1384 Oswald Milser demanded a greater host and the ground gave way as the shape was dyed red. The parish information itself uses expressions equivalent to "supposedly" for the episode, while documenting the Gothic expansion of the temple and its heritage. This difference between architectural history and devotional account is preserved.
