The Marienkapelle (St. Mary's Chapel) at the Clementinum Cemetery is a beautiful place for a break or some inner reflection at the Sachsenring. It also commemorates the martyr Eduard Müller, murdered by the Nazis.

The small forest chapel on the Hoppenberg is called Marienkapelle. A first wooden one from 1932 was replaced in 1952 by a decorative quarry stone one. It belongs to the Clementinum in Paderborn, a "late vocation seminary" that takes care of young priests. Its founder was the prelate Bernhard Zimmermann.

For me an absolutely magical place of silence and contemplation, in wonderful surroundings. Highly recommended 🙏🕯️
