    From the idyllically located Barbara chapel you have a wonderful view of the Fanes group. Pure enjoyment of the Dolomites.

      The dedication document of the St. Barbara Chapel, whose second patron saint is St. Florian, dates from 1491. St. Barbara is the patron saint of miners. It is assumed that the chapel was built by miners from the valley of Buchenstein (Lan. Fodom). According to local tradition, silver was once mined in nearby Tolpëi, which could also explain why the patron saint of miners has a chapel here. The tradition is supported by the fact that mining for lead ore and silver has been documented for the 16th century, so it could have been carried out earlier in the 15th century.
