From the website eifel.info: Based on a vision by Count Philipp Dietrich von Manderscheid-Kall in 1646, a replica of the Ascension Chapel on the Mount of Olives near Jerusalem was built on the hill between Oberkail and Schwarzenborn. In earlier times the Frohnert Chapel was a much-visited pilgrimage site.

The chapel, which is surrounded by hedges, serves as a resting place.
From the village Oberkail leads a way of the cross.
