The small chapel is freely accessible, is maintained and everything looks very clean.

After initial planning by the then elementary school director Georg Keiner in 1951 and building permission from the Episcopal General Vicariate in 1957, the forest chapel was built on a ridge in the middle of the Osterledde farming community east of Laggenbeck. All Osterledder participated in the construction of the Marienkapelle, be it through donations in kind such as wood, sandstone or land as well as through active support in the development of the property, breaking sandstone or as a helper. An Osterledde specialist also took care of the embossing, the professional cutting of the stones into ashlars. A statue of Mary, also known as the Osterledder Madonna, was created by the sculptress Walli Keil, who had fled East Prussia, and from then on invited the faithful to reflection and prayer with her kind face. Marian devotions and commemorative hours are still held here today. On the Day of Mourning, the Osterledde rifle club commemorates those who died or were missing in the World Wars, whose names are written on marble plaques on the walls. The best way to reach the chapel is on foot, as the driveway is narrow. A steep stairway leads to the top of the hill, and when you get to the top, there are a few benches where you can rest and take a breather. Here you can enjoy the view with devotion: To the west there is a panoramic view over the hilly Osterledde to Laggenbeck, on clear days the view to the east extends over fields and forests to Velpe. The Marienkapelle towers over everything and invites you to worship in the shade of large trees and surrounded by old rhododendron bushes.
