Votivbild der Schlacht bei Meßkirch
Text:

Vorstellung der großen Schlacht, welche den 5.te May 1800 zwischen der kayserl. Armee unter Comando des General Feldzeugmaisters Baron v. Kray und die Franzosen unter dem Ober General Moreau zum Nachtheil der Kayserl. In hiesiger gegend. Während dieser Schlacht mussten die hießigen Inwohner ihre Habschaften meistens dem Raube der Soldaten überlassen und ihre Rettung mit dem Vieh in Waldungen suchen. Auch ihre Häuser waren in einem so erschröcklichen Feur und Kugelregen. Durch mehrerer Stunden ausgesetz dass solche nur durch unmittelbare Hülfe Gottes vor dem Brande gerettet würden, so man mit David im 126 t. Psalm bekenen muß: Bewacht der Herr die Wohnungen nicht, so ist aller Wachen vergeblich.
Zum ewigen Denkmal der schuldigen Dankbarkeit der erhaltenen Rettung seind allen disen Vorstellung und Kugeln hier aubewehrt
Date early 19th century
