Wonderful, small chapel above the roofs of Königstein. The chapel was only renovated in 2015. A bench with a table to rest in front of the chapel.

A nice place to pause at the pretty little chapel. A rest area with a wonderful view also invites you to linger.

The ev.-luth. John's Chapel was renovated in 1927. To our delight, the door wasn't even locked. A sign prohibiting entry for dogs was attached to a wooden column.
