A chapel was built in the small hamlet of Waller in the Middle Ages and dedicated to the early Christian martyr Margarete. A brother house was built next to the chapel, which is now an inn, the "Brown Deer". The chapel fell into disrepair after the Reformation. But it was rebuilt in 1717 on the old remains of the wall. Worth seeing: The coats of arms above the archway are reminiscent of the five Nuremberg keepers Kreß, Tetzel, Nutzel, Pfinzing and Holzschuher. The altarpiece shows the Descent from the Cross of Christ and the angels on old age proclaim what is written on their banners: "Christ's death and bloody death make us heirs to heaven."
The parish celebrates worship five times a year, but the chapel is open to visitors all year round. If it is locked, you can get the key from the inn. kirche-alfeld.de/wir-ueber-uns/waller
