Cylindrical chapel with an attached turret.
Inside and outside, there are several benches.
In the chapel hang numerous "Maria has helped" panels.

Rings Chapel
The "forest chapel" of the Ring family is a place of Marian worship.
In the woods northeast of Poststrasse, surrounded by tall beech trees, stands a pretty little church.
It owes its name, Ring Chapel, to its builder.
Built in 1966/67, it was dedicated to the "Mother of Perpetual Help" and consecrated by Pastor Schlegelmilch on May 15, 1967.
The special thing about this little church is the fact that it was built on the base of a disused water main pumping station.
This place of peace and quiet invites passers-by to linger and reflect.
Although private property is open to the public, the parish also likes to use it for processions and May devotions.

On the outskirts of Emmelshausen, a little further than the shooting range and its shooting range, there is a private, very well-maintained forest chapel. It is (actually) on the Hunsrückbahn hiking trail, but a little off the wide forest path, only a narrow path between the trees leads there. It is dedicated to the Mother of God, Mary, whose statue - with the baby Jesus in her arms - stands in the center of the pretty forest chapel.
