    This chapel was built in the year 2000 for a sad occasion. A year earlier, a 26-year-old man died in a fatal accident while working in the field. His mother has given him a worthy keepsake with this chapel.
    She herself collected stones from the forest, giving the chapel its individual appearance. The chapel was dedicated to the patron saint of the young man, St. Lawrence.
