Research and responses

There are a number of places called Marienthal, several in Germany, at least two in France and one in Luxembourg. Perhaps the most likely connection is with the Basilica of Notre Dame de Marienthal in Strasbourg, but there is no way of telling which Marienthal the picture comes from. [El.B 02/08/2012]
