The St. George Chapel was built at the end of the 16th or beginning of the 17th century. It is also known as the "Schimmelkapelle", which indicates a legend about a horse that was captured (held) in the chapel (sueddeutsche.de/muenchen/starnberg/sz-serie-mythen-und -says-episode-2-the-terrible-death-of-the-white-horse-1.3321352). The chapel is located about one kilometer south of Ascholding on a hill with an excellent mountain view.
