    Built in 1787, it has had a rather eventful history. Built as a "porcelain house", the small pavilion was initially used to store the prince's porcelain collection. In 1822, Prince Heinrich XIX had the building converted into a Catholic chapel because the then Princess Gasparine was a Catholic. After the First World War, a war memorial was placed inside. A larger-than-life bronze sculpture was created by the Dresden sculptor Prof. Karl Albiker. The inscription above the door "I call you, the living" was added in 1926.
