Originally a pleasure house of a factory owner's wife. We see this in the hearts in the chapel's shutters. In 1933, the property was bought at auction by the innkeeper couple Schuster from Harruck. In memory of her fallen son Karl Schuster, Mrs. Schuster donated the blockhouse for church purposes. In the late autumn of 1948, the local pastor at the time, Anton Hofbauer, had the house converted into a chapel, consecrated on the feast of Holy Brother Klaus (September 25).
According to legend, if you ring the bell in the Klauskapelle three times by pulling the rope once, your wish will come true.
